A Conversation with the Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers




Heritage Events Podcast show

Summary: Many Americans may be skeptical that business tax reform will increase their wages and grow the economy since they’ve seen corporate profits skyrocket over the last decade while their own wages have stagnated. These are complicated issues that even some economists can’t explain. Join us for a conversation with Kevin Hassett, Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, to discuss how business tax reform will benefit American workers and grow the economy. Chairman Hassett will discuss the evidence that shows corporate tax reform can increase wages by $4,000 for the average U.S. household, address the methodology of CEA’s research, and elaborate on the negative impact of the current outdated tax code on the American economy.
