Why Biden’s trillion-dollar stimulus spending plan won’t work<\/h2>\n

Laffer Associates chairman Art Laffer explains how additional coronavirus spending could damage economy.<\/p>\n

President Biden is moving forward with his $1.9 trillion coronavirus stimulus plan, but the increased spending could compromise the economy, Laffer Associates chairman Art Laffer warned on “Kudlow” Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Laffer explained to FOX Business Network’s newest program that the administration’s rampant spending would be put to better use if it prioritized supporting health care or creating jobs.<\/p>\n

“I think this does not make sense,” he said. “Anything on health care, that makes a lot of sense … Anything for jobs creation, that would be good. But that’s [a cost of] a lot less than even a trillion dollars. That would be a small amount compared to the $2 trillion.”<\/p>\n

“I think it’s a killer of the long-run economy of the U.S.," he stated.<\/p>\n

Even though trillions in economic support might sound helpful to many Americans at the moment, Laffer said this “huge” amount of money won’t look so appealing after a future market crash and debt spike.<\/p>\n

“I think we still have a trillion left over from the stimulus package before,” he said. “Two trillion is just way too much. We’ve gone from a debt level of 84% of GDP now to 115% and it’s continuing to rise."<\/p>\n

Laffer pointed out that Republican economists aren't the only ones are critical of increased spending. In a recent Washington Post op-ed, former Clinton Treasury Secretary Lawrence Summers argued "bold measures" such as these must be taken into "careful consideration."<\/p>\n

"He thinks it's way too large," Laffer said. "Other people are looking at this thing as being potentially very damaging to the long run."<\/p>\n
