Dean Baker Interview: The Myth About National Debt

Follow on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/actdottv
Julianna welcomes back recurring guest Dean Baker, macroeconomist and co-founder of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, to discuss the myth that adding to the country’s debt will slow down economic growth. He writes that those sounding the alarm about the national debt, are “desperately trying to create a problem where one does not exist.”
Dean Baker co-founded The Center for Economic and Policy Research in 1999. His areas of research include housing and macroeconomics, intellectual property, Social Security, Medicare and European labor markets. He is the author of several books, including Rigged: How Globalization and the Rules of the Modern Economy Were Structured to Make the Rich Richer. His blog, "Beat the Press," provides commentary on economic reporting.
