Kyla Scanlon - "In This Economy? How Money and Markets Really Work" - The Daily Show
“Most economic problems are political problems at the end of the day.” Economic commentator Kyla Scanlon sits down with Jon Stewart to discuss her book, “In This Economy? How Money and Markets Really Work.” They talk about the importance of teaching Americans about the economy in accessible ways, how the government has weaponized people to justify Medicaid cuts under Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill, why labor and capital don’t have to be mutually exclusive, and why she’s optimistic about the future.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
