From The Takeaway July 11, 2022 Harris Public Policy Associate Professor Damon Jones recently joined The Takeaway where he discussed how rising interest rates and increasing inflation will shape the current economy. Associate Professor Jones explains how recent events have caused these increases and what effects those changes in the economy might have. Associate Professor Damon Jones "The other fear is that inflation is no longer the issue but now a recession is the issue," said Associate Professor Jones.
