In the wake of Trump's sweeping economic legislation, Jon is joined by Clara Mattei, Professor of Economics at The University of Tulsa and author of "The Capital Order," and James Robinson, Professor at the Harris School for Public Policy at the University of Chicago. Together, they explore how the myth of free markets masks government interventions for corporate interests, investigate the limits of economic solutions to political problems, and consider what a worker-focused economy could look like. Plus, Jon reacts to Elmo’s meltdown & answers some listener questions!
