"We borrowed a lot of money to give tax cuts to big corporations and rich people in not the most effective way," says Leonard Burman, Paul Volcker Chair in Behavioral Economics. "The real concern is the growing debt and the possibility that interest rates won’t stay low forever—and I don’t think they will." Burman was interviewed for the Wall Street Journal article "Two Views on How Trump’s Tax Cuts Have Worked Out." 01/07/20
