On Friday, Economist Editor-in-Chief Zanny Minton Beddoes and former Obama administration adviser Steven Rattner slammed Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), calling her economic proposals “extreme” and suggesting that they would devastate the U.S. economy.

“Many of the things that she’s trying to address are real problems in the U.S. economy – the scale of inequality, the increasingly concentrated nature of the U.S. economy – but on balance, when you look at it, I actually think that many of her specific proposals, there are some that make a lot of sense, but many of them, when taken together, it would give a shock to the U.S. economy that on balance would be not good for the U.S. economy,” Beddoes said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
