“On Monday afternoon, Thompson delivered the second of the three special lectures meant to provide voters with an overview of the economic policy proposals of presidential candidates Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump.

“In the lectures, Thompson discusses chapters from the book, which are available on Penn State Law’s website.

“On Monday, Thompson went over chapters 12-16 — covering topics such as the Great Recession, the budgetary policies of Clinton and Trump in relation to the deficit and Social Security and Medicare.”
