Steven Mnuchin: “I very much agree with you and those other experts that more fiscal response is needed.”

I don’t think we’re going to have a recession. I don’t think the outlook looks like we’re going to have a recession.

Let me be clear: That is a false choice. Americans should not have to, and did not have to, choose between quickly getting aid during a crisis and preventing the theft or waste of billions of tax dollars.

I don’t think anybody should look at what’s a natural, healthy correction of these indexes as indicating that the economy’s in trouble.
