Kamala Harris' Plan to Cut the Cost-of-Living. Can It Work?
==========
Vice President Kamala Harris unveiled her economic agenda on August 16, 2024, aimed at lowering the cost-of-living, including a proposal to ban price gouging on groceries; a YouGov/Economist survey (August 17-20) showed inflation and prices as top voter concerns (26%); food prices are 21% higher than three years ago; Harris proposed $25,000 down payment help for first-time homebuyers and a $6,000 tax credit for families with newborns; Trump criticized her plan as 'Communist' and unrealistic; economists like William Ruger argue it could lead to shortages and black markets; Marc Goldwein stated neither candidate has a solid plan to fight inflation; Trump promised to lower prices within 100 days of his second term starting November 2024, including ending taxes on Social Security.
