Crushing Capitalism with Norbert Michel

This week we cover the Trump administration’s AI action plan, Detroit’s unlikely rebirth, pushing back on EU tech regulation, and why the golden age of air travel is now. Our interview this week is with Norbert Michel, vice president at the Cato Institute, director of the Institute’s Center for Monetary and Financial Alternatives, and the author of the excellent book Crushing Capitalism: How the Stagnation Narrative is Threatening the American Dream. We’ll talk about populism, tariffs, rising wages, industrial policy, and economic freedom.
