China’s Economy and the U.S. with Derek Scissors

This week we talk about corporate real estate investing, woke pension funds, changing fuel economy rules, and questions about a possible Trump Federal Reserve nominee. Our guest this week is Derek Scissors of the American Enterprise Institute and China Beige Book. We’ll talk about manufacturing, Trump policy, President Xi’s plans for Taiwan, and whether we should give up the Bill of Rights to get more bridges and high-speed trains.
