Highway Jobbery — 3 Ways To Reverse Massive Coronavirus Unemployment | WALL STREET MEETS WASHINGTON EP. 8

Every Friday, the Daily Caller White House correspondent Christian Datoc sits down with Wall Street guru and CEO of Farvahar Partners Omeed Malik for a new episode of “WALL STREET MEETS WASHINGTON.” It’s the only show that breaks down the beltway’s economic updates for both financial VIPs and everyday Americans looking for market tips.

The jobless numbers keep getting worse. Congressional members of both parties could get voted out of office if not more is done to help stave off unemployment. (RELATED: Labor Department Reports 2.4 Million New Jobless Claims — Will Trump’s Executive Order On Job Growth Stop The Bleeding?)

Omeed and Christian detailed three specific ways we can immediately get people back in the workforce.

1. Innovative Stimulus
2. Infrastructure Spending Bill
3. Develop New Industries

Malik also took a deep dive on a miniature mortgage crisis brewing in America. Delinquent payments skyrocketed over the past month and Omeed explained the problems with the federal government not extending stays or relief for both homeowners and renters. Furthermore, the guys talked about how coronavirus could impact the electoral map for future years. Who would have guessed that the next major migration pattern we’d see would be people moving AWAY from the cities?

Datoc also took a step back and examined the lockdowns from 30,000 feet. Why are the reopening states seeing declining infection rates? Should we have gone the Sweden route from the beginning? What happened to the media’s fawning coverage of Democratic New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo? Does it have anything to do with this story from the Daily Caller News Foundation, showing that the state quietly changed how they’re recording coronavirus deaths.

Finally, the guys turned their attention back to the only coronavirus Trump card (pun intended) — when are we going to get a real vaccine?
