Quote
Jared Bernstein (born December 26, 1955) is an American musician who is the chair of the United States Council of Economic Advisers. He is a senior fellow at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities ...This says a lot about the universities that have hired him to teach a subject about which he knows absolutely nothing, not to mention the inept Obama and Biden administrations that named him economic advisor.
Bernstein graduated with a bachelor's degree in music from the Manhattan School of Music where he studied double bass with Orin O'Brien. Throughout the '80s, Bernstein was a mainstay on the jazz scene in NYC. He also earned a Master of Social Work from Hunter College as well as a DSW in social welfare from Columbia University's school of social work ...
Bernstein has taught at Howard University, Columbia University, and New York University. His areas of interest include "federal, state and international economic policies, specifically the middle class squeeze, income inequality and mobility, trends in employment and earnings, low-wage labor markets, poverty, and international comparisons." ...
