Any econ majors out there?
« on: January 23, 2018, 07:25:24 PM »
I realize it's an op-ed, but I'd like to try and understand the economics behind the 2 situations.

Can anyone give an explanation based on math, stats, facts? Not looking for politics here.

Any article written by Tom Steyer, op-ed or otherwise, is going to be heavily biased.  Same as if it was written by Grover Norquist or any other conservative commentator.

Both are going to be pulling data and facts that supports their thinking, most likely from economists that see things the same way.
