    Bernstein has been an advisor to Biden for a very long time - at least back to when Biden was VP.

    I had a very quick look at this Wikipedia page.

    Jared Bernstein

    He was considered to be a progressive and "a strong advocate for workers".

    [...]

    [He coauthored] The Benefits of Full Employment: When Markets Work for People, where he states that "[l]ow unemployment by itself cannot address all the inequities in society," and advocates that "[o]ther forms of intervention are still needed to assist disadvantaged populations."

    He's a bass playing ghoul.

    Bernstein graduated with a bachelor's degree in music from the Manhattan School of Music where he studied double bass.

        extremely shit how the ruling class and anyone who existed before late stage capitalism was allowed to go to school for arts and passions and graduate into a job just fine but we all have to starve or be STEM lords
