Show Notes

Recorded in early 2025, Jim Falk sits down with Donald Boudreaux, Ph.D., professor of economics at George Mason University and senior fellow at the Mercatus Center, and Jeff Ferry, chief economist emeritus at the Coalition for a Prosperous America, to examine tariffs and their impact on the U.S. economy. Their conversation weighs who bears the cost of tariffs versus who benefits, digs into competing explanations for the decline in American manufacturing, and debates whether today's trade policy risks repeating the mistakes of the past.
