WTH Can We Do About Inflation? Glenn Hubbard on Biden's Response, What's Causing Price Spikes and How to Fix It

More guns, less butter? Today, average Americans are looking at
historic levels of inflation, economic contraction, and rising
gas prices, soon to merit the term stagflation—and that's not
all. People are leaving their jobs en masse, the average consumer
is cutting costs to keep up with personal budget deficits, and
meanwhile, the Biden administration has added $1.9 trillion to
the $300 billion economic hole. To top it all off, there's
trouble abroad with tightening sanctions on Russia and the
persistent trade competition with China. Glenn Hubbard joins Dany
and Marc to discuss the state of economic affairs, the role of
the Fed, Build Back Better, and more.

School. He is the current Russell L. Carson Professor of
Finance and Economics there. He is also the former chairman of
the Council of Economic Advisors.
