My guest today is Ms Rana Foroohar.Today, we will talk about Rana’s new book, Makers and Takers: The Rise of Finance and the Fall of American Business. In the book, Rana argues that Wall Street is no longer supporting Main Street businesses that create the jobs for the middle and working class. She draws on in-depth reporting and interviews at the highest rungs of business and government to show how the “financialization of America”—the phenomenon by which finance and its way of thinking have come to dominate every corner of business—is threatening the American Dream. Wu Zhijian’s Evidentialist Show is about information sharing on evidence-based research in subjects such as economics, business, and finance.
