Live-streamed on May 1, 2024 David Dayen, executive editor at the American Prospect, discusses his recent piece outlining the new FTC rule regarding non-compete clauses, co-authored with Luke Goldstein. https://twitter.com/ddayen https://prospect.org/topics/david-dayen/ https://twitter.com/lukewgoldstein David Dayen and Sam then look to the absurd evolution of the “non-compete” contract clause, first popularized as a tool to prevent the spread of company secrets among executives, and now used to constrain some 30 million workers in industries from dog grooming to fast food. After expanding on the expansive chunk of our economy crippled by non-compete clauses, David walks us through the ongoing legal battle to overturn the bipartisan ban, how the legacy of Antonin Scalia looms large over this topic, and why the Supreme Court’s bogus “Major Questions” Doctrine is central to these arguments. After expanding on the likely evolution of this court battle, Dayen wraps up with a brief update on Live Nation’s attempt to court DC insiders with some help from the free (but evidently not priceless) press.
