(Teaser)
We discuss the Tyson COVID betting scandal and the Times op-ed “I Traced My Covid-19 Bubble and It’s Enormous.” Then (40:45), Bea and Phil sit down with Marshall Steinbaum to discuss Biden's rather limp student debt plan, the origins of the myth that student debt relief is regressive economic policy, and why it's time for a debt jubilee.
Marshall Steinbaum is an Assistant Professor of Economics at the University of Utah and a Senior Fellow at the Jain Family Institute. Follow him on twitter @Econ_Marshall
