Americans have always fought over the meaning of freedom and equality. What is not commonly recognized is that the battles most pivotal in defining our democracy, from the framing of the Constitution to the decades-long backlash to the civil rights movement, hinged on one issue—taxes.In The Price of Democracy: The Revolutionary Power of Taxation in American History (Basic Books, 2025), Vanessa S. Williamson challenges the myth that Americans are instinctively anti-tax, revealing that fights over taxes have always been proxies for deeper conflicts over who is included in “We the People.” Poorer people have repeatedly built movements that sought to tax all Americans to create a more equal and democratic nation. Wealthy people have responded by constraining the power to tax and stifling democracy through voting restrictions, gerrymandering, and violence. Yet as hard as anti-tax crusaders have fought to create an America that redistributes not from rich to poor, but from non-white people to rich white people, the battle rages on.The Price of Democracy uncovers how fights for fiscal fairness have defined American history, delivering a powerful message to the present: that taxes are the public's most powerful weapon in the fight for a real democracy.

I found Dr. Trasande quoted in a Washington Post article The health risks from plastics almost nobody knows about: Phthalates, chemicals found in plastics, are linked to an array of problems, especially in pregnancy. He said, "Endocrine-disrupting chemicals are one of the biggest global health threats of our time ... And 2 percent of us know about it---but 99 percent of us are affected by it.”The article said that he said that "at the population level, scientists can see telltale signs that those chemicals are undermining human health, adding to growing male infertility or growing cases of ADHD." This outcome suggests a violation of this nation being founded on protecting life, liberty, and property, and the consent of the governed. I also found from this video, Food Contaminants and Additives, that he reported his results thoroughly, taking care not to venture outside his research.I had to talk to him.We talked about his research, what brought him to a new field, now burgeoning, of learning about chemicals that disrupt our endocrine systems---that is, they mess with our hormones. You'll hear that he didn't intend to go into it. It was (tragically) growing in importance since our hormone systems are becoming increasingly disrupted, as are those of many species.I should be more accurate. They aren't passively being disrupted. Consumers are paying companies to produce chemicals that do it.It sounds slimy and scary. I'd rather it didn't happen, but since it does, I'd rather know than not know. I think you would too.Dr. Trasande's NYU faculty page Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Are the rich fleeing Britain? That's what the numbers suggest, but some activist groups have hit back that the data is dodgy. For the second episode of Reality Check The Spectator's economics editor Michael Simmons explains why the data shows that the wealthy are leaving Britain, and why this matters for everyone else.

Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian is joined by Christina Caron, economist, author, and former senior policy advisor to two Prime Ministers. Christina has served as a federal public service executive, think tank economist, and diplomat and now focuses on how environmental deterioration is reshaping our economy. Together they discuss her powerful argument that rising food prices are not just a temporary or local issue, but a global and systemic consequence of environmental damage. As climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution intensify, they erode productivity growth, strain agricultural yields, and ultimately make us all poorer.Christina explains how the loss of “natural capital” — our forests, soils, water, and ecosystems is undermining prosperity and driving the persistent rise in real food prices worldwide. They also explore what policy actions Canada must take to reverse this trajectory: investing in renewable energy, protecting biodiversity, and recognizing that environmental sustainability and economic growth are not opposites, they're inseparable.

I recorded this in the midst of being cancelled by the people of Aldershot!! In more real world affairs, I discuss Rachel Reeves 'rolling the pitch' to make us all poorer (again).

Why does life keep getting more expensive, even as technology makes everything cheaper? Every year, we produce more, innovate faster, and work harder. Yet somehow, it feels harder than ever to get ahead. This episode reveals why that feeling isn’t a failure… its design. We uncover the hidden architecture of inflation: the mechanisms, incentives, and feedback loops that keep modern economies running on perpetual money creation. Inflation isn’t random. It’s engineered. And understanding how it works explains why you feel poorer in our most technologically-advanced age yet. Here’s what we’re unpacking:* Why “growth” has become a disguise for dilution* How new money always flows to the ultra-wealthy first (the Cantillon Effect in modern form)* The missing prosperity that technology should have delivered, and who’s capturing it instead* Why governments can’t stop printing (and why inflation is now policy, not accident)* How the system feeds on productivity itself, keeping you running faster but never getting ahead If you’ve ever felt like you’re running faster but standing still, this episode will show you why. See you on the inside. IMPORTANT: The Investor Lab is for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice.

WATCH ON YOUTUBE: Why You Feel Poorer Even as the World Gets Richer – SERIES: Why Getting Ahead Is Getting Harder (and What To Do About It) Have you noticed that, no matter how hard you work, it feels harder to get ahead? Wages look bigger, property prices keep climbing, and the headlines say Australia is richer than ever. But for many households, the reality is the opposite — pay rises don’t stretch, saving feels impossible, and the dream of home ownership slips further away. In this new mini-series — Why Getting Ahead Is Getting Harder (and What To Do About It) — we expose the hidden forces behind the squeeze: from the illusion of prosperity created by money supply growth, to the widening divides between owners and non-owners, to the strategies you can use to protect yourself and build real wealth today. The old rules no longer work: work hard, save diligently, and expect security. The new rules are here. And in this series, we’ll show you how to use them to your advantage. -- RESOURCES TO HELP: Join the conversation: The Investor Lab Community Looking for a team to partner with you in your portfolio building journey?

We're back in the book of James in this week to have a look at how both trials and the Gospel of grace level the playing field for us all no matter what our circumstances happen to be. It's important to remember that not everyone doing well has God's favour. And not everyone doing it tough is in God's bad books. All of us--no matter our circumstances--are in desperate need of grace and are loved more than we can imagine.

Send us a textOrganic food often sounds like a smarter, healthier choice—but is it really worth the extra cost? In this episode, we dig into the scientific evidence behind organic foods, pesticide risks, and whether you're buying better health or just paying for a better-sounding label.We begin by breaking down the steep price differences between organic and conventional food. According to the USDA, Americans spend roughly $1 trillion annually on food at home, averaging over $3,100 per person. Organic options can increase grocery bills by 50% or more, as LendingTree reports in this price comparison analysis. My own market trip found Fuji apples nearly double in price, and wild-caught salmon more than twice as expensive.But do organics deliver better health outcomes? Most organic foods contain lower pesticide residues, which 85% of Americans cite as a concern. Yet research shows these lower levels don't clearly translate to better health. Rodent studies show harm at extremely high pesticide doses, far above what's found in conventional produce. Human risk data mostly comes from farm workers, not everyday consumers.A 2023 meta-analysis of 50 studies found that organic diets reduced blood pesticide levels and increased plant-derived phenolics, but showed inconsistent results for antioxidants. Cancer data is also mixed. One observational study found no clear differences across 15 cancer types. Another study of 68,000 participants linked organic food with perhaps a  0.6% lower risk of cancer incidence (JAMA Internal Medicine). However, organic eaters also are more likely health oriented (perhaps exercise more, sleep better), so lifestyle may explain the difference—not the food alone.I ran the numbers: avoiding one case of cancer might require 150 people to eat organic, costing about $300,000 in additional food expenses to avoid 1 cancer. And since organic prices may lead families to buy less produce overall, there's a tradeoff. We know from a meta-analysis that increasing fruit and vegetable intake (organic or not) is linked to a 13% reduction in mortality and a 35% drop in cancer risk. That's a far more impactful move.If you're looking for a middle ground, consider using the Environmental Working Group's Dirty Dozen and Clean 15 lists. While not a neutral source, their rankings can help prioritize which foods might be worth buying organic. Washing produce also helps reduce, but not eliminate, pesticide residues.Takeaways:Organic foods have lower pesticide levels but no clear, consistent health advantage.The biggest health gain comes from eating more fruits and vegetables—regardless of whether they're organic.If organic costs limit your produce intake, stick with conventional and focus on volume, variety, and other wellness investments like better sleep or exercise.As always, I'd love to hear what you think. Does this shift how you shop? Let me know—and share this episode with someone navigating the same choice.

In this powerful episode of Married and Connected, we're diving deep into the true meaning behind two of the most overlooked yet vital wedding vows: "for better or worse, for richer or poorer." These aren't just poetic words recited at the altar—they're lifelong commitments that shape how we show up for our partner through life's highest highs and lowest lows.Host Kameran Alareqi, a certified marriage coach, breaks down how these vows are often abandoned when things get hard—and what to do to truly live them out in your everyday marriage. You'll learn how emotional sobriety, mindset, and relational discipline are the keys to honoring these sacred promises. We'll explore real-life examples, relationship research, and what couples who've been married 40+ years say is the secret to longevity and love that lasts.

He is interested in understanding the impact that behavioral heuristics and biases have on decisions in the real world. He runs the popular YouTube channel UnlearningEconomics. He is the author of Why We're Getting Poorer: A Realist's Guide to the Economy and How We Can Fix It. In this episode, we focus on Why We're GettingPoorer. We start by talking about the 2008 economic crisis and the effects of austerity measures. We discuss what the economy is, and how wealth is created. We also discuss whether we need the capitalist class, who the essential workers are, the impact of billionaires in society and politics, and philanthropy. We then go through topics like social mobility, economic inequality, Universal Basic Income, how to measure poverty, the gender pay gap, the housing crisis, and inflation and the cost-of-living crisis. Finally, we talk about how we can make the world economy more resilient, and we discuss how we can fix our economic systems.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO,JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JONWISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Ahead of Federal Election 2025, Bushy Martin cuts through the political noise to give you an honest, no-spin breakdown of the housing policies proposed by the major parties and how it impacts Australian property investors. With skyrocketing property prices outpacing wages and a shortage of housing supply, this election could be a pivotal moment for your investment strategy. Key Highlights: Housing Affordability Crisis: Bushy explains why housing affordability is such a mess, with property prices rising faster than wages, creating a perfect storm for investors. Labor’s Housing Solutions: The Australian Labor Party’s $10 billion Housing Australia Future Fund (HAFF) promises 30,000 homes over five years but faces challenges. Also, the Home Guarantee Scheme and social housing push may provide opportunities but also bring inflationary pressures. Liberal-National Coalition’s Approach: The Coalition’s $5 billion infrastructure fund and reforms like tax-deductible mortgage repayments and APRA adjustments could stimulate housing supply and help first-home buyers. However, these policies risk pushing property prices higher and adding to demand. Greens’ Radical Policies: The Greens propose phasing out negative gearing, implementing rent controls, and building public housing. While aimed at affordability, these policies may inadvertently reduce housing supply and worsen the rental crisis. Bushy concludes by stressing the essential role of property investors in supplying rental housing and how misguided policies could push them out of the market, exacerbating the affordability issue. Takeaways: Whether you’re an investor or aspiring homebuyer, understanding the policy impacts is crucial. Bushy breaks it down so you can make an informed vote and position yourself for better investment outcomes, no matter who wins the election.

Why are the rich getting even wealthier while the middle and working classes continue to struggle? Former top trader Gary Stevenson - the star behind popular YouTube channel Gary's Economics - breaks down how wealth inequality is driving down living standards for the middle and working classes on this episode of Ways to Change the World. He tells Krishnan Guru-Murthy how the rich grow their wealth through passive income and investments, while ordinary people fall into debt, and argues that low interest rates, tax policies, and government responses to crises like 2008 and COVID-19 have mainly benefited the wealthy, deepening the financial divide. And finally, he urges people to educate themselves and push for change before inequality spirals further out of control.  Produced by Silvia Maresca.
