Lots of political news this month as the modified conventions will take place and Joe Biden will announce who his pick will be for his running mate. Biden has already committed to picking a woman as his vice president, but there has been increased pressure to pick a woman of color. Ginger Gibson, Deputy Washington digital editor at NBC News, joins us for who is on the shortlist.
Next, the summer of 2020 will be full of booming home sales and unfortunately, evictions. The lowest mortgage rates in history are allowing people to take advantage and buy bigger homes, but on the flipside, renters are facing job losses and evictions. Heather Long, economics correspondent at the WSJ, joins us for what else is driving home sales during the pandemic.
Finally, there is no COVID baby boom that some suspected there might be. In fact, Americans aren’t making babies, and that could be bad for the long term economy. Some estimates say there could be 300-500,000 fewer babies born next year which leads to fewer consumers, workers, and taxpayers. Peter Coy, economics editor at Bloomberg Businessweek, joins us for the American baby bust.
