Episode 81: Working class political realignment, zero-sum thinking, and some dismal Pew data on American politics
Hey friends! On this week's episode, we start off talking about how President Biden and former President Trump will engage the UAW strike in Michigan, and we discuss the potential for political realignment.
Next, Pew Research has new data on American attitudes towards politics. Across the board, Americans' attitudes towards government, the two parties, and 2024 are increasingly. Most feel exhausted or angry towards US politics. We discuss the implications of these numbers in light of a different new study from Harvard on the pervasiveness of zero-sum thinking in economics and politics.
