Victor Davis Hanson breaks down how Mexico's trade practices, cartel complicity, and remittance dependence are fueling an asymmetrical relationship that benefits Mexico at America's expense on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Ms. Sheinbaum, why don't you do the following? Why don't you say that Mexican nationals are your citizens? They're key to your economic growth. You don't want them to leave your country. You have a new revisionist reform plan that you're going to offer them social services so that they don't flee to the United States. You're going to keep your own people in your own country. “ The problem with Mexican-American relationships, as those polls reveal, is on your side. Don't run up surpluses by mercantile dealings with an existential enemy of the United States, China. Do not count on American taxpayers to subsidize your own citizens who entered illegally to send back 63 billion to your failing economy. And do not lecture us about the cartels—what we should and should not do about it—when you are enabling them to kill 70,000 Americans as a source of foreign exchange inside Mexico.”

Guest: Dr. Renato Molina, University of MiamiEvery year, hurricanes threaten lives, infrastructure, and the economies of coastal communities—but what if better forecasting could actually save billions of dollars? Turns out, it already has! But how can we put a dollar value on something as complex as a weather forecast? Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dr. Renato Molina of the University of Miami, who has dived deep into the economic impact of improved hurricane forecasts. From the costs of misjudged wind speeds to the hidden value of getting the forecast right, his research shows just how powerful—and expensive—information can be when a hurricane is on the horizon.Chapters00:00 The Economic Impact of Hurricane Forecasting07:10 Understanding Forecast Accuracy and Economic Value13:25 Protective Spending and Recovery Costs20:08 Quantifying the Value of Forecast Improvements29:56 Connecting Research to Policy and IndustrySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

For Episode 196 we have J.T. Horn, J.T, is the Trail Director for the Trust for Public Land. J.T. was also one of two guests on episode 192 where we discussed the Economic Impact that Mountain Biking can have on communities. For this episode we are discussing various ways to bridge the gap between Land Conservation organizations and the Trail Community. This topic can be a rather important topic because land access for trails is often one of the most challenging hurdles for trail development. As J.T. describes during this conversation, partnering with a Land Conservation Organization that understands the value of trails and outdoor recreation can be a critical step in the trail development process. I always really enjoy perspective that J.T. brings during our conversations and I hope you do as well! Topics Include: The J.T.

Ray White speaks to Sibongile Simelane, Executive Director at the South African Responsible Gambling Foundation, as concerns mount over South Africa’s spiralling gambling addiction. More than R1.1 trillion has been lost not on food, housing, or education but on gambling, much of it online and via mobile phones. With even teenagers getting hooked, and reports of SASSA grants and loans being used to fund bets, the human cost is rising: debt, depression, and despair. As the gambling industry booms, we ask: who’s protecting the vulnerable? What role is the government playing? And what impact is this silent epidemic having on our already fragile economy? 702 Breakfast with Bongani Bingwa is broadcast on 702, a Johannesburg based talk radio station.

We will let Canada know the Tariff that they will be paying to do business with the United States of America within the next seven day period. Thank you for your attention to this matter! https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1939522597550518357 If Canada had kept the Digital Services Tax (DST) in place, the financial and economic consequences would have been significant, primarily due to potential U.S. retaliation and disruptions to the Canada-U.S. trade relationship. Lost Tax Revenue vs. Retaliatory Tariffs: The DST was projected to generate approximately C$5.9 billion (about US$4.3 billion) over five years, or roughly C$1.2 billion (US$870 million) annually, according to Canada's 2024 federal budget However, U.S. President Donald Trump threatened to impose new tariffs on Canadian goods in response to the DST, which could have far exceeded the tax revenue. For context, Canada exports over US$400 billion in goods annually to the U.S., representing 75% of its total goods exports. If the U.S. imposed tariffs (e.g., 10-50% as suggested by Trump's April 2025 tariff levels), the cost to Canadian exporters could have ranged from US$40 billion to US$200 billion annually, depending on the tariff rate and scope. Specific sectors like automobiles, energy, steel, and aluminum (already facing 50% U.S. tariffs) would have been hit hardest, with ripple effects across supply chains. Increased Costs for Canadian Consumers and Businesses: The DST would have imposed a 3% tax on digital services revenue from Canadian users, affecting U.S. tech giants like Amazon, Google, Meta, and Apple. Some companies, like Google, had already introduced surcharges (e.g., a 2.5% “Canada DST Fee” on ads starting October 2024) to offset compliance costs, which would have raised prices for Canadian consumers and businesses reliant on digital services. Canadian business groups warned that these costs would be passed on, increasing the price of digital subscriptions, online marketing, and e-commerce. Economic Impact of Retaliation: The U.S. could have targeted Canadian pension funds and investments through retaliatory measures, as warned by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce. A trade war could have exacerbated Canada's economic slowdown, with unemployment already at 7% in 2025, potentially leading to job losses in export-dependent industries like manufacturing and energy. Sector-Specific Impacts: Automotive and Manufacturing: Tariffs on automobiles and parts would have disrupted integrated North American supply chains, increasing costs for Canadian manufacturers and potentially le...

The economic impact of poor business judgement, is a topic we managed every day as partners. Each time an associate made a poor “common sense” decision we needed to explain both the potential reputation and economic damage done to the firm. The former is well-known, but the latter is less known but just as important. In thinking through why consulting firms look for business judgement, it helps to consider the economic impact to clients and the firm.

Also in the show we hear from Thailand as the latest deadline for US President Donald Trump's increased tariffs on US imports looms. And why the Canary Islands and other parts of Spain are protesting against tourism.

Earmark Media Presents a bonus episode of Earmark Podcast: What happens when Congress votes to eliminate the watchdog that's overseen public company audits for two decades? In this episode, Blake Oliver sits down with three leading accounting academics—Maureen McNichols from Stanford, Nemit Shroff from MIT, and Daniel Aobdia from Penn State—to examine the research behind the PCAOB's effectiveness and what elimination could mean for audit quality. You'll discover why companies with clean audit inspections can raise capital more easily, how the infamous "40% deficiency rate" actually works, and why these researchers believe dismantling the PCAOB could undermine trust in U.S. capital markets. The conversation reveals the hidden economics of audit oversight and explains why there hasn't been a major public company fraud since Enron and WorldCom.Chapters(00:00) - Welcome to the Show (01:10) - Meet the Experts (02:59) - Discussion on PCAOB's Elimination (08:17) - Research Insights on PCAOB's Effectiveness (20:11) - Deficiency Rates and Audit Quality (24:50) - Economic Impact of Fraud and PCAOB's Role (25:20) - Regulatory Model of the PCAOB (25:59) - Incentive Structure and Audit Quality (26:59) - Inspection Deficiency Rates (28:54) - Restatement Rates vs. Deficiency Rates (30:23) - Auditor-Client Relationship Tensions (31:42) - Documentation Issues in Audits (35:15) - Effectiveness of PCAOB Inspections (37:49) - Impact of PCAOB on Financial Reporting Quality (40:33) - Potential Elimination of the PCAOB (44:00) - Conclusion and Final Thoughts Sign up to get free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://earmarkcpe.comhttps://earmark.app/Download the Earmark CPE App Apple: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/earmark-cpe/id1562599728Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.earmarkcpe.appConnect with Our Guests:Maureen McNicholshttps://www.gsb.stanford.edu/faculty-research/faculty/maureen-mcnicholsNemit Shroffhttps://mitsloan.mit.edu/faculty/directory/nemit-shroffDaniel Aobdiahttps://directory.smeal.psu.edu/dza5396Connect with Blake Oliver, CPALinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/blaketoliverTwitter: https://twitter.com/blaketoliver/
America is sitting on a $2 trillion opportunity and no one's talking about it. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the recent U.S. discoveries of massive lithium and rare earth deposits that could reshape the global economy, restore American manufacturing, and end our reliance on foreign adversaries like China. Now that President Trump is back in office, his administration is taking aggressive steps to fast-track development and unleash America's mineral dominance. But will the bureaucrats, eco-activists, and foreign interests succeed in derailing this opportunity? This episode reveals the stakes and the path forward. Episode Highlights: Uncovered: Trillions of dollars in mineral deposits and the U.S. states poised to become richer than Dubai Why these mineral discoveries could spark a new era of American economic dominance How the Trump administration is cutting red tape and blocking China from controlling America's critical resources
(From 5/20/25) - This week on Steady Droppin' Dimes, Sam Webb, Devin and Daniel Horton discussed the latest iteration of the rivalry between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. The crew cheered the intensity of the competition between the two stars and celebrated what may even be their dislike for one another for one another on the court as part of the game. The crew then criticized Robert Griffin III's commentary for seemingly applying scrutiny to the back & forth between two women that he wouldn't between two men, and while also amplifying racial stereotypes against Reese. The conversation then turns to Ryan Clark's commentary on RG3 and whether it was out of line for mentioning his wife's race as a factor in his lack of perspective on issues affecting black women. Next, Droppin Dimes Sponsor Golden Limousine introduces Michigan defensive back Zeke Barry as its NIL ambassador for the year. From there, Sam and Devin turn their attention to the impending changes in NCAA enforcement, which will soon be managed by a new CEO. The episode concludes with a conversation with the Ann Arbor Sports commission about its study on the economic impact of Michigan football. It revealed that $226.7 million was spent by out-of-county visitors during games in 2024.

A Note from James:Well, you can't get more information about tariffs and the economy than what I just got and you're about to listen to. Wilbur Ross, who was Secretary of Commerce under the first administration of Trump, just came on the podcast. I got to ask any question I wanted—about tariffs, the economy, everything.Don't forget, in Trump's first administration, we saw steel and aluminum tariffs, and there were all the same concerns—about the economy, inflation, political blowback. Wilbur Ross was right at the center of it. And now, he's giving me the full picture on what's happening today and where it's all heading.This is a guy who built entire industries, served in the Cabinet, and is worth billions. He's also the author of Risks and Returns: Creating Success in Business and Life, which I highly recommend. He's an economic and business inspiration. I learned a lot from this conversation—I'm sure you will too.Please share this episode with anyone who wants to better understand what's really going on with tariffs and the economy. Enjoy!Episode Description:James sits down with Wilbur Ross, former Secretary of Commerce and seasoned investor, for a candid and highly detailed discussion on tariffs, China, inflation, pharmaceutical policy, and the state of the U.S. economy. Ross offers a firsthand look at the economic strategies being proposed for a possible second Trump administration—explaining why blanket tariffs might make sense, what's really going on with China and rare earths, and how executive power is being used to bypass bureaucratic gridlock.Listeners will get a rare window into how economic policy is being formed, the political forces shaping it, and what it all means for growth, inflation, and American manufacturing.What You'll Learn:Why blanket tariffs are being reconsidered—and how they differ from past policiesThe strategic role of tariffs in foreign policy, especially with ChinaHow U.S. dependence on China for pharmaceuticals and rare earths is being challengedWhat role executive orders and emergency powers play in trade and healthcare reformThe real economic trade-offs between inflation, recession, and reshoring productionTimestamped Chapters:[00:03] Complexity of Tariffs and China's Role[03:18] Trump's Tariff Strategy and Economic Impact[07:21] China's Influence on Global Supply Chains[16:13] Pharmaceutical Dependencies and Economic Policies[26:47] Impact of Tariffs on Inflation and Recession[45:18] Conclusion and Final ThoughtsAdditional Resources:Wilbur Ross's Book: Risks and Returns: Creating Success in Business and LifeInternational Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA): Legal summary on IEEPANaked Wines (Podcast Sponsor): https://www.nakedwines.com/jamesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
