Kamala Harris gets good news from economists: New survey
==========
Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, received positive feedback from economists regarding her economic agenda in a survey published on September 14, 2024. The survey, conducted by the Financial Times and the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, indicated that 70% of economists believe Donald Trump's economic policies would be more inflationary, while only 3% said the same about Harris. Additionally, 70% of economists predicted larger federal budget deficits under Trump's platform compared to 11% for Harris. Harris aims to expand tax deductions for small businesses, restore the child tax credit, and lower housing costs, funded by raising taxes on the wealthy. Trump plans to continue 2017 tax cuts and impose tariffs on imports. Public opinion is mixed, with a YouGov poll showing 34% of Americans think Harris's tax plan would increase the national deficit more than Trump's, and a Pew Research Center poll indicating 55% of registered voters have confidence in Trump's economic decision-making compared to 45% for Harris.
