TWE 25 | How Will INCREASED Oil, Gas, and Health Insurance Prices Affect Your Life?

Thank you for listening to the 25th episode of "This Week's Economy," where I briefly recap and share my insights on key economic and policy news. Today, I cover: 1) National: Increased costs of oil and health insurance, whether there's a relationship between ongoing inflation and increased unemployment, and what's going on with the trade deficit and tariffs; 2) Iowa: How conservative state budgeting is helping Iowa to thrive and increase competition and why we need more responsible budgeting across all states; and 3) Other: My most recent op-eds discussing unemployment and why the latest GDP numbers suggest fiscal insolvency, and a sneak peek of my upcoming podcast episode with Brian Blase from the Paragon Institute. If you enjoyed this podcast, please rate it 5 stars, leave a review, and share it on social media.
