Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Rising Costs of Housing
Q: What are some of the possible sources of the problem regarding increasing housing costs?

Trade and Jobs: Who Loses, Who Adapts and Who Pays? (Re-broadcast)
Q: What did you and Jay find about the ability of regions to adapt to changing conditions, including changes due to trade?

Trade and Jobs: Who Loses, Who Adapts and Who Pays? (Re-broadcast)
Q: Does the evidence bear out the idea that trade is responsible for the decline in manufacturing in the United States?
While manufacturing jobs have declined, evidence shows that the value added in manufacturing has actually increased, pointing to a complex picture influenced by multiple factors beyond just trade.
Trade and Jobs: Who Loses, Who Adapts and Who Pays? (Re-broadcast)
Q: Can you start off by making the economist argument for the benefits of international trade?
