Michael Strain on the Jobs Report

Mark and Cris are joined by Dante and Michael Strain, Director of Economic Policy Studies at the American Enterprise Institute. Dante kicks things off with a detailed summary of the stronger than expected U.S. employment report for September. Buoyant wage growth and upward revisions to July and August’s numbers confirm that the economy remains healthy. The discussion then pivoted to the presidential election with Michael making a strong case for status quo economic policies and divided government.
