In this week’s special hour-long episode of Economic Update, Professor Wolff first discusses unionizing Whole Foods workers versus Amazon and then covers Trump and the contradictions, dangers, and global retaliation of the new administration’s tariff program. This is followed by an interview with political scientist Dr. Wilmer J. Leon III on the China-U.S. competition: its costs, the stakes, and why the U.S. is losing.
In the second half of the show, Professor Wolff discusses what’s behind the Trump administration’s efforts to cut federal government costs.
