Obama's former top economist tells us why it made 'no sense' for the GOP to pause stimulus spending — and breaks down what should be in the next aid package

in March as the economy cratered due to the pandemic, and checked back in this week for another wide-ranging discussion. Topics included: how long it could take for unemployment levels to return to normal, the lack of a stimulus strategy from the White House, and whether direct payments and boosted unemployment benefits was effective in boosting the economy.

And an important reason the unemployment rate has come down so quickly is a huge amount of economic support that we've had.And how long could it be before the unemployment rate falls below 5%? What about single-digits?: We could be in the single digits before the election. Below 5%, I think that would take five years. The initial part of the unemployment rate dropping can happen very quickly because people are being called back to jobs that they were temporarily laid off from.
