Good morning. 215 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,720 Speaker 3: I'm Nathan Hager. Taxes and the economy. They are emerging 216 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 3: as key themes ahead of the first debate for Donald 217 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: Trump and Kambala Harris next week. The Vice President is 218 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 3: making a pitch for higher capital gains taxes as she 219 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 3: flushes out her economic policy. 220 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 9: We know when the government encourages investment, it leads to 221 00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:47,000 Speaker 9: broad based economic growth, and it creates jobs, which makes 222 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 9: our economy stronger. 223 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:50,880 Speaker 3: That was the Vice president as she called for a 224 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,319 Speaker 3: twenty eight percent rate for capital gains taxes during a 225 00:11:54,360 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: speech in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. Joining us this morning is 226 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 3: Bloomberg News Senior editor Bill Ferry Spill. 227 00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 13: Good morning. 228 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 3: It's a higher rate, but not as high as President 229 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,480 Speaker 3: Biden has called for. So what's the contrast she's trying 230 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 3: to draw here? 231 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 18: Well, she's you know, we're what two months out, and 232 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:16,319 Speaker 18: there's been some questions about whether how she would differentiate 233 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 18: herself from President Joe Biden. So maybe this is the 234 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 18: start of that. In the kind of home stretch of 235 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:24,480 Speaker 18: the campaign, she said she would like to see a 236 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 18: twenty eight percent capital gains tax rate on people earning 237 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 18: one million dollars or more. That's down from the thirty 238 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,439 Speaker 18: nine point six percent rate that President Joe Biden had supported, 239 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:40,480 Speaker 18: So you know a little bit of a differentiation there. 240 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 18: Kamala Harris has started to put more flesh on her 241 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,599 Speaker 18: economic plan. That comes after some a few weeks of 242 00:12:47,679 --> 00:12:51,839 Speaker 18: criticism that wasn't clear what her policies were, so we're 243 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 18: heading into this debate now starting to see that the 244 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:58,719 Speaker 18: Capitol Games tax is won. We've seen her propose a 245 00:12:58,840 --> 00:13:02,920 Speaker 18: tax deduction for startup costs for small businesses that would 246 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,560 Speaker 18: go up to fifty thousand dollars from five thousand dollars, 247 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 18: and said she said she's going to set a goal 248 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 18: of trying to get twenty five million new business applications 249 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 18: in the first term of her administration. That would be 250 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 18: an increase from about nineteen million under Biden so far. 251 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 18: So we're starting to hear a few more details. I 252 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 18: think she'll show up at that debate less likely to 253 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 18: face criticism that people don't know what her policies are. 254 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 3: Are you expecting that We're going to hear many more 255 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 3: details on former President Trump's economic proposals, a lot of 256 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:37,080 Speaker 3: calls for tax cuts across the board when he speaks 257 00:13:37,160 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 3: before the Economic Club of New York later today. 258 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,480 Speaker 18: Yeah, I think you know, one of his signature achievements 259 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:47,199 Speaker 18: I think of his administration was that twenty seventeen tax 260 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 18: bill at lower taxes, primarily on businesses. I think you 261 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,360 Speaker 18: know he views that as kind of the winning issue 262 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,360 Speaker 18: across the board. There's been some questions about how much 263 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 18: it would cost. It's one study has put it in 264 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 18: the several trillion dollars over ten years. So he hasn't 265 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,120 Speaker 18: really explained how he would pay for that beyond he 266 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 18: says it would boost economic growth and that would kind 267 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 18: of pay for itself. I think there's still gonna be 268 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,839 Speaker 18: a lot of questions about that, but you'll have to, 269 00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 18: you know, two dueling economic plans to see get debated 270 00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 18: next next next week when we have this first debate 271 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 18: between the two candidates. 272 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 3: I wonder if we're going to see much political impact 273 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 3: on this. Reporting that President Biden as soon as this 274 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 3: week could move to block the US steel takeover by 275 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: Japan's Nippon Steel. 276 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 18: Yeah, there's really no political support in the US at 277 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 18: this point in either party for this proposal. It seems 278 00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 18: like the President's opposition to it, along with Vice President 279 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 18: Harris's opposition Donald Trump's opposition, it seems like that would 280 00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 18: be sufficient to kill this off at least for the 281 00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 18: foreseeable future. It was a fourteen billion dollar takeover proposal. 282 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 18: The companies on both sides, Nippon Steele and US Steel 283 00:15:05,680 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 18: of course in support of it. But it's you know, 284 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 18: this is a US Steel is a company based in 285 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 18: the biggest swing stake state of the MA all Pennsylvania. 286 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 18: The unions are not for it, So you know, both 287 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 18: parties going after those working class voters. You have to 288 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 18: really question the timing of the proposal and why why 289 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 18: Nippon Steele thought that was that, right in the middle 290 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 18: of a presidential campaign was the time to throw this 291 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 18: out there. It does seem to be dead in the water. 292 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,320 Speaker 3: Just thirty seconds left. I wonder what you make of 293 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 3: former President Trump saying his debate strategy is going to 294 00:15:38,400 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 3: be to let Harris talk when there's been all this 295 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 3: back and forth about whether to keep the mics on 296 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: during the whole debate. 297 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. 298 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 18: Well, you know, Republicans have said that they've criticized Kamala 299 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 18: Harris for saying that some of her answers don't get 300 00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 18: to the point that she speaks in word salads. I 301 00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 18: think that's what the president is going for or hoping 302 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 18: for in this case. But he also said, listen, he 303 00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 18: used that Mike Tyson quote about everyone has a strategy 304 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 18: till they get punched in the face. He said he's 305 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 18: willing to willing to shift gears. I don't think we 306 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 18: know what's going to happen. I think it could be 307 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 18: a real free for all, but we'll all have to 308 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 18: tune in and see. 309 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 2: This is Bloomberg day Break Today, your morning brief on 310 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 2: the story's making news from Wall Street to Washington and beyond. 311 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: Look for us on your podcast feed at six am 312 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:27,680 Speaker 1: Eastern each morning, on Apple, Spotify, and anywhere else you 313 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: get your podcasts. 314 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 2: You can also listen live each morning starting at five 315 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 2: am Wall Street time, on Bloomberg eleven three to zero 316 00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 2: in New York, Bloomberg ninety nine to one in Washington, 317 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 2: Bloomberg one oh six to one in Boston, and Bloomberg 318 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,040 Speaker 2: ninety sixty in San Francisco. 319 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: Our flagship New York station is also available on your 320 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 1: Amazon Alexa devices.
