Xenophobic Stimulus
The devil is in the details. Included in the House bill is a "buy American" provision for steel. It would prohibit the "shovel ready" projects from using non-domestic steel. Steel has pulled this kind of trick before. What nonsense.
I spent 40 years working at the intersection of higher education and public policy. I earned a doctorate from USC focused on tax policy and finance. Since 2011 I have had a consulting practice called Buffalo Consulting and have split my time between California and San Miguel de Allende.
