YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

This week on Moment of Truth, Nick is joined by Ian Fletcher, Senior Economist at the Coalition for a Prosperous America.

Ian demolishes the sacrosanct state of free trade and explains why America must embrace tariffs, strategic industrial policy, and government-supported technology development if we want to reclaim good jobs and reassert our global competitiveness. Ian also explains why decades of neoliberal dogma have hollowed out America—and what a real pro-worker, pro-industry economic strategy looks like in practice. Plus, stick around for the end to hear him give the Hamiltonian vision for America's economic future and why the Jeffersonian vision has failed.

A must-watch for anyone serious about reindustrialization and putting American workers first!
