Harris' Plan Is Economically Dumb but Politically Smart

Until recently, the Kamala Harris campaign seemed allergic to setting a policy agenda. Finally, the campaign is starting to roll out its economic platform, and the substance likely won't appeal to many people who actually know about economics. But it's hard for me to argue with the politics. As someone who has often said Democrats need to compromise their ideals to win, I don't exclude my own ideals from that. And I see that when Harris rejects my economic preferences, she's doing it in a way that will help her win.
