The Economy of Frustration

The Rick Smith Show

April 12, 2024

The American economy is the strongest in the world, and every indicator says we are doing well … so why don’t Americans feel optimistic about it? There are a number of reasons, and many powerful entities involved, and on today’s show, we talk not only about the numbers and the positive effects of Joe Biden’s policies, but also about the incredibly powerful forces that shout doom and gloom at us for purely partisan reasons. Our guests today are David Madland of The Center for American Progress and Julia Metraux of Mother Jones.
