About this episode
The $2.2 trillion CARES Act stimulus package and historic unemployment during the coronavirus pandemic is placing a strain on our economy and has greatly increased the national debt. Rachel Greszler, research fellow in economics, budget, and entitlements at The Heritage Foundation, joins the podcast to explain the effects of record high unemployment on the economy and how Americans can successfully get back to work after COVID-19. Greszler also shares the intended purpose of the Paycheck Protection Program and what Congress can do to resolve the program's shortcomings. Check out The Heritage Foundation's Blue Print for Balance to find out how balancing the federal budget is possible.
