Kamala Harris' economic plan so far is aimed squarely at household costs: Brookings' Ben Harris

Allison Schrager, Manhattan Institute senior fellow, and Ben Harris, Brookings Institution director of economic policy, join 'Squawk Box' to discuss Vice President Kamala Harris' economic agenda.

The average American is the foundation of this nation's economy, therefore if their money vanishes, unemployment will rise and the message "You have an unexpected month" will emerge. If you have a lot of student loans that are coming due, that money will run out very soon.

What are the best strategies to protect my portfolio? I've heard that a downturn will devastate the financial market, so I'm concerned about my $200k stock portfolio..

[setthehookFL]

I left a third-world country to come to the USA for a reason. Here, this woman is proposing the same policies that ruined my former home. Its sad so many Americans are falling for this.

[stuffbenlikes]

I understand she wants to increase the price of homes. If you give people $25k to buy homes, homes will immediately increase in price by $25k.

[garywarren]

Government ordered minimum wages plus government ordered price controls? Yea, that'll work. Ask anyone from the Soviet Union in the good old days.

[MrHaddenkr]

Where is this plan written down and explained? Oh that's right this way they can deny everything

[samjohnson]

So why did it take her 3 1/2 years to do it?

[stevebriggs]

Its not a lack of supply that's caused housing prices to skyrocket. It's ridiculously inflated prices caused by ridiculously printing money.

[pavelkostar]

She wants to keep this country on its current trajectory!!

[lizadivine]

Imagine running on the platfrom of I'LL FIX EVERYTHING I AND MY PARTY WRECKED... Cmon Americans wake the hell up!

[andreawahleithner]

The only reason that house prices are so high is because of supply and demand. We literally had 30 million people come into this country in the last 4 years of course there's not enough houses in the prices are going to be high.

[jaaukn]

Question for the Harris supporters: Why do you support federal bans on price gouging (the government controlling prices)?

[jamesbaran]

Why in the hell are you people not interviewing Kamala Harris and her vice president pick any other candidate would have done like three four interviews already why are you hiding her what what horrible stuff has she done that you need to hide her from

[NonnyBid]

Why is she waiting!? Why not do it now? 3 yrs ago? Her agenda is meant to break us and it’s working!

[eddieklotz]

She’s in office so your telling me she will try to fix her mistakes and harm from the first four years lmao

[andrewsinkinson]

Corporate media is so disingenuous. Her "kitchen table" approach is astroturfed. Price controls destroy retailers. Fix the cause not the effect.

[mark-bemq]

Would've been nice to have her concern b4 my grocery bill tripled & she only had "time" tell us 'Joe was 100% sharp & running for 4 more years.

[tylerwelch]

We are living her plan. Her plan is here and now. This is the plan. The plan is reality. Reality means we are feeling it now. The plan is living out in real time.

[briangubash]

Yeah, we pay for immigrants hotels Healthcare and meanwhile, American citizens don’t even get that themselves🤯 Productivity😱

[leonarddonohue]

Someone tell Cackling Kamala she doesn’t need to wait until “day one” to fix this mess. She’s been in office the last 4 years.
