"What we've been keeping our eye on North Carolina. And with us from Raleigh, North Carolina, is Bloomberg's Amelia Pollard. Joining us from democratic Senate nominee sherry Beasley's election party. So thank you for being with us Amelia. Tell us what's going on in North Carolina. Well, it is a neck and neck race. But Ted bud, the senator, I mean, the Republican nominee for senator is currently a congressman serving for North Carolina. He has been polling a few points ahead of sherry Beasley, the democratic nominee in recent days, but the first results coming in tonight are indicating that sherry Beasley has a slight advantage. And that's largely because there's something called the blue mirage. And that is taking place because North Carolina, unlike other states like Pennsylvania, has a chance to count early votes earlier today. So those are the first results coming in this evening. Do we have any sense of how much of a delay there is in North Carolina and getting the votes in? We know, for example, in Pennsylvania it's going to take a while. Yeah, it's going to take a while here. Definitely not as long as Pennsylvania, you know, a professor spoke to tonight from UNC Chapel Hill told me that North Carolina does count its ballots pretty fast. The last time I checked about 15 minutes ago, I think 53% of precincts were reporting and Ted bud is leading right now by a few points, but that's largely because awake county, the largest county in North Carolina, and the most democratic or one of the most democratic has not yet reported. So it's likely that there will be a big wave coming in for sherry Beasley in the coming hours as white county and other big democratic strongholds like Durham, start coming in. So it'll really be a touch and go race for the next few hours. And it's really hard to tell who has the advantage right now. Okay, Mia, thank you so very much. As Bloomberg's Amelia Pollard reporting from Raleigh, North Carolina. And now we get a rare opportunity to talk to Larry summers. He's a former US Treasury secretary currently with Harvard University, of course, and I'm delighted to say a very special contributor on Wall Street week. Larry, thank you so much for taking time with us this evening. We don't know how this is going to come out. I certainly know it's going to come out. But give us a sense of what's at stake in terms of the economy, in terms of managing the economy, whether Republicans or Democrats control the Congress. Look, what's important, however, exactly this comes out, is that there be a measure of responsibility in the carrying out of policy. Of course, we'd all prefer bipartisan compromise in legislation on a whole range of issues. I have a feeling that's not going to happen. However, this comes out. But what I'm pretty sure we need is to simply move the country forward and what's been disturbing to me is the number of people, particularly frankly, on the side of the House Republicans who have said that if they don't get their way on a whole set of issues, they're going to send the country into default by not being willing to raise the debt limit. And that's something that I think is really threatening both to the economy to financial markets at a moment when we already have fragility in the treasury market. And to the nature of our democratic system, which should involve tough negotiation and hard fought contests and elections, but should not involve taking the country's credit as hostage. So that's something I'm going to be really hoping to avoid. I'm going to be hoping that the center holds. This is not the time for extreme proposals from the left or the right. And the other thing I'm going to be hoping is that Congress is going to watch carefully, but it's going to let the Biden administration get on with executing the work of government. We are as a country, 92% dependent for the most sophisticated kinds of semiconductors that drive everything from our supercomputers to the guidance systems in our airplanes to the automatic door locks in our cars. We are 92% dependent for that on Taiwan. That can't be sensible security policy. That's why we had bipartisan legislation. The chips act. And we've got to execute that legislation effectively. We've got to execute in an effective way moving to much more electric economy with much more electric transportation. Obviously, electric cars are at the center of that. And what we need is the government to execute crisply efficiently and effectively on that and at the same time for Congress to provide oversight. We can have that. We can really move the country forward and that's the right thing, not a lot of witch hunts in any direction. Larry, you have had positions at the uppermost levels of economic policy in Washington. The Treasury Department in The White House. And of course, you've been a macroeconomist for your entire career. We've heard both Republicans and Democrats raise the debt ceiling issue before for their own purposes. Why is this time different? Or is this just a boy crying wolf one more time? Well, look, we've come to the brink a number of times. The last major time in 2011, the country actually had its credit rating. Downgraded. But we haven't had it happen to my knowledge after a period of major interest rate hikes from the fed. We haven't had it happen at a time when there was substantial illiquidity in the treasury market and people were worried that there'd be big spikes in treasury yields. We haven't had it happen when we were as precariously precariously dependent on foreign governments holdings of our debt. So I think this is a moment especially not to play games. This is a moment to let the country move forward and have our heart fights, but not have them in a way that's threatening the idea that the United States of America pays its bills. Laura, let me ask you about fiscal policy, something you and I have talked about a fair amount at this point. The Republicans to a person as far as I can tell say, the one thing they're going to make sure if they do get control of one or both houses is to make sure no more fiscal spending of any substantial size. Are you pre sanguine with that given where we are with inflation, we don't need a lot of fiscal stimulus, do we? We don't need fiscal stimulus God knows. We need the opposite. But you know, fiscal stimulus is measured by the change in the deficit. And if we need more spending and we finance that spending with taxes, that's the right thing to do. And gosh, I look at what's happening in Ukraine. I look at what in some ways is an increasingly threatening China. I look at the uncertainties in the Middle East and frankly, my suspicion is we're going to need to increase our national security. Spending in the time ahead. I think we need to pay for those increases by cutting other programs or by increasing taxes, but I wouldn't want to say absolutely categorically no new spending given that often spending more money can enhance our national security or spending more money can pay for itself down the road as is the case for many programs. You know, something I work very hard on David that I think is very important is the strengthening of the IRS capacity, not to launch some kind of attack on American taxpayers. That's ridiculous propaganda. But only to get back to the same kind of capacity
