In a recent discussion, economist Paul Krugman reflects on Vice President Kamala Harris's economic policies, particularly her proposal to ban price gouging on food. He expresses skepticism about the relevance of price gouging in recent inflation trends while noting that inflation has largely been contained to around the Federal Reserve's target. Krugman suggests there is a risk of an economic slowdown but does not predict an impending recession. He believes current economic indicators favor Harris heading into the election, provided there isn’t a significant rise in unemployment.
