This Is What Trump’s Economy Looks Like

It will lead to spending less on everything else, which is a drag on the economy.
Let’s Talk Affordability
Q: What, in your opinion, is the best answer about affordability?
There needs to be a government role in managing regulations to prevent monopolies and ensure affordability in housing and healthcare.
Let’s Talk Affordability
Q: Talk to me about what you're hearing from North Carolinians about their concerns about affordability.
North Carolinians are frustrated about rising costs like rent, groceries, and childcare, as they feel they can't afford basic necessities even though politicians claim prices are down.
How Corporations Help Drive the Affordability Crisis
Q: What can you tell us about this scheme involving RealPage?
This is a scheme that systematically hiked rent for people by one estimate; algorithmic price fixing accounted for Americans overpaying by $3 billion.
How Corporations Help Drive the Affordability Crisis
Q: Lena, I want to talk about algorithmic price fixing because as you pointed out, we haven't necessarily enforced anti-monopolistic stuff, even when it wasn't complicated with algorithms.
It's absolutely going to require very assertive efforts by lawmakers, by law enforcers.
