Is Trump Following China's Lead? | This Week's Economy Ep. 125

from Let People Prosper · host Vance Ginn, Ph.D.

In the name of “fixing” the economy, this administration has its hands deep in the market. From firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner to inserting itself into corporate deals and demanding a cut of it to imposing tariffs on Americans, President Trump is disrupting vital market signals. That’s no place for a president, especially in what should be a free-market capitalist system (it’s not).There is a place for presidential leadership—urging fiscal discipline, lowering taxes, and cutting red tape. It’s encouraging to hear the president express interest in these areas, but continued actions will speak louder than words.Meanwhile, Texas’ first special legislative session called by Governor Abbott to revisit bills he vetoed ended on Friday. How much progress was made?You can catch the full episode on YouTube, Apple Podcast, or Spotify.Visit: VanceGinn.comSubscribe: VanceGinn.Substack.com
