Former White House Chief Economist on the Differences in the Biden and Trump Bailouts

INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.

Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed Casey Mulligan, Former Chief Economist of the White House Council of Economic Advisers (2018-19).

Kevin Price and Casey Mulligan discuss the differences between the Trump and Biden stimulus packages and why the latter seems to be more motivated by politics than economic relief.

The American Rescue Plan just passed. Most of it has little to do with the pandemic and a lot to do with protecting special interest. States and localities are given money on the condition that they do not cut taxes. Schools are given money to formulate and take comments on “back-to-school plans” that won’t be finished until the school year is almost over.

According to the NY Times, “Mulligan is affiliated with a number of professional organizations, including the National Bureau of Economic Research, the George J. Stigler Center for the Study of the Economy and the State, and the Population Research Center. He is also the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including those from the National Science Foundation, the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, the Smith- Richardson Foundation, and the John M. Olin Foundation.

“Professor Mulligan received his Ph.D. in economics from the University of Chicago in 1993. He has also served as a visiting professor teaching public economics at Harvard University, Clemson University, and Irving B. Harris Graduate School of Public Policy Studies at the University of Chicago.”
