The industrialization, the battering of the American working class unions regional inequality, I think that all really gets us to the real theory of politics behind the IRA and economics more generally. How does Bidenomics propose to create a new material basis for liberal democratic politics? And then returning to the debate we've been having, does that theory seem likely to succeed on the ground? Is it even possible to do so in today's United States?
Featuring Daniela Gabor, Ted Fertik, and Tim Sahay on Bidenomics. We define and debate the new American industrial policy, the energy transition, the New Cold War with China—and more.
