Economic demand that exceeds supply

The U.S. economy demonstrated robust growth in the third quarter of 2025, with a gross domestic product (GDP) increase of 4.3%, according to the Commerce Department. This growth occurred despite consumer concerns and uncertainties related to tariffs, with military spending and corporate profits contributing significantly. However, the technology sector experienced substantial layoffs, with 1.1 million jobs cut in 2025, of which only 55,000 were attributed to artificial intelligence (AI). The majority of job losses stemmed from corporate restructuring and economic conditions rather than direct displacement by AI, leading to hiring freezes, particularly for entry-level positions.Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) are currently facing challenges in attracting talent, with over 70% reporting difficulties in finding qualified candidates due to competition from larger firms. The National Federation of Independent Business noted that nearly half of all small businesses are struggling to fill open positions, which is stalling growth and reducing productivity. Despite a slight increase in small business optimism, driven by expectations of higher sales, many owners cite labor quality as their top concern. Additionally, 64% of SMBs are experiencing supply chain disruptions, complicating their operations.The episode also discusses the ongoing chip and memory shortages, which are expected to persist into 2027, leading to rising prices for consumer electronics. Major memory manufacturers are prioritizing supply for AI companies, impacting pricing across various sectors. Furthermore, the shift towards outcome-based pricing models in software is highlighted, where companies may pay based on actual results delivered, potentially complicating the relationship between service providers and clients if expectations are not clearly defined.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT service leaders, these developments underscore the importance of clarity and realistic expectations in service delivery. As operational fragility becomes more pronounced amid rising costs and labor shortages, MSPs must reframe their roles from implementers to risk managers. This shift is crucial to avoid margin erosion and contract disputes, ensuring that they are not unduly burdened by decisions made outside their control. The evolving economic landscape necessitates a proactive approach to pricing and service design, particularly as automation and AI continue to reshape the industry.

Generic drugs are, in many ways, the unsung hero of America's health care system, bringing powerful medical innovations within the reach of millions more people. These cheaper copies of brand-name drugs — from pills that stop heart attacks to antibiotics that cure life-threatening infections — save America hundreds of billions of dollars a year. But will affordable, high-quality generic drugs continue to be there when we need them?Some players are abandoning this business while others slash costs by cutting dangerous corners. Shortages of older generic drugs have become the norm, sending doctors scrambling. At the same time, crucial new medicines are proving tougher to copy on the cheap, saddling patients with brand-name prices.Over the course of “Race to the Bottom,” our new three-part podcast series, we'll explore why this industry that's so essential to our health is in trouble — and what could change that.In part one, we examine the history of this industry. Forty years ago this month, President Ronald Reagan signed groundbreaking, bipartisan legislation that gave birth to a new drug market. Lawmakers made choices back then that help explain the wild success and also the troubles we see today with generic medicines.Guests:Christine Baeder, MBA, President, Apotex USAAlfred Engelberg, JD, retired attorney and former counsel to the Generic Pharmaceutical AssociationLeslie Walker, Senior Reporter/Producer, TradeoffsLearn more and read a full transcript on our website.Al Engelberg's recently published memoir, “Breaking the Medicine Monopolies”, digs into the history of generic drugs.

Welcome to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked, where we dive into the latest on Ozempic from medical breakthroughs to lifestyle shifts.Ozempic, a glucagon-like peptide one receptor agonist, mimics a hormone to boost insulin, slow stomach emptying, curb appetite, and quiet food noise. The American Cancer Society notes it was first approved for type two diabetes but now aids weight loss with diet and exercise, delivering average losses of fifteen to twenty percent of body weight in studies.Recent research from the University of Texas at Arlington highlights up to twenty percent body weight reduction over months through appetite suppression. Yet, AOL reports real-world data shows an average five point one percent loss on semaglutides like Ozempic.Exciting medical news: A Danish and Canadian trial in CU Anschutz Medicine found obese knee osteoarthritis patients on weekly GLP-one agonists had major pain relief and better function. Orthopedics expert Karin Payne sees huge promise for these drugs in easing arthritis symptoms by cutting weight.Psychology Today's December twenty ninth, twenty twenty five study reveals Ozempic reshapes more than bodies. Users feel normal and happier post-loss but face emotional hits from past stigma. Demand surges from weight anxiety, even in slim nations like Japan, fueled by social media. Many endure nausea, fatigue, and costs, tweaking doses via TikTok tips, blurring into disordered eating risks.The New York Times reports older adults over sixty five quit GLP-one drugs like semaglutide within a year at sixty percent rates, regaining weight and facing muscle loss that hurts fitness. Shortages contributed.Big update: Reuters says the Food and Drug Administration just approved Novo Nordisk's twenty five milligram oral semaglutide pill as Wegovy for obesity or overweight with conditions, expanding access beyond injections.Cancer links remain mixed per the American Cancer Society: possible lower risks for breast, prostate, and others, but avoid if thyroid cancer history.Pair Ozempic with healthy eating, exercise, and doctor guidance for best results.Thanks for tuning in, listeners.

In this special 2025 U.S. Policy Highlights edition of the Vital Health Podcast, we look back at our most important discussions on Most Favored Nation (MFN) drug pricing and its knock-on effects for jobs, state budgets, and the generic supply chain. Over the past year, proposals to link U.S. prices to those in other countries have collided with inflation pressures, tariff debates, and reshoring efforts, creating new uncertainty for manufacturers, payers, and policymakers. In an environment where expectations about future returns are shifting, and the rules of the game are still being defined, this episode is designed as a year-end guide to what MFN-style policies could mean in practice and how to think about the tradeoffs. Throughout 2025, we our research on MFN-style reference pricing with a series of podcast episodes where host Duane Schulthess sat down with leaders across the generic, distribution, and policy landscape. In this highlights episode, we revisit several of those conversations: Kirsten Axelsen: Part D Shift, IRA Penalties, and Access Risks Patrick Kelly: Inside the Generic Supply Chain Squeeze John Murphy: Generics, Biosimilars, and U.S. Policy VT’s Grumpies (Harry Bowen, Joe Hammang) Talk MFN Key Topics: MFN Mechanics Explained: How tying U.S. prices to the lowest GDP-adjusted price in a reference basket translates into steep cuts for top-spend medicines in Medicare Parts B and D and shapes expectations across commercial and Medicaid contracts. Jobs, Earnings, & State Budgets: What our modeling suggests about potential impacts on employment, earnings, and tax revenue under MFN-style reference pricing, and how those effects concentrate in R&D-intensive regions and manufacturing hubs. Spillovers Into Medicaid, 340B, & ASP: Why MFN in Medicare does not stay in Medicare, how Medicaid best price and 340B ceilings pull discounts across programs, and what lower ASP add-ons could mean for hospital and community oncology margins. Generics, Shortages, & Tariffs: How razor-thin margins for sterile injectables and generic manufacturers interact with purchaser consolidation, tariff shocks, and price referencing, raising the risk of exits, inventory write-downs, and persistent shortages. Global Competition & Offshoring: How aggressive reference pricing can accelerate shifts in trials, licensing, and high-value manufacturing to countries that offer more predictable returns, and what that implies for long-run U.S. competitiveness. Alternatives To MFN: Ideas from our guests on value-based approaches, targeted incentives, and other tools that can improve affordability without hollowing out domestic capacity, innovation, and resilience in the generic and biosimilar supply chain. Opinions expressed are those of the speakers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"The number one issue that whenever I talk to farmers has always been labor," says Tyler Wenzlaff, director of national affairs with Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation. "We're not going to be able to survive if we do not have labor needs met." Wenzlaff explains that the traditional model of family-run operations has been upended via economic pressure or lack of interest from younger generations. This has forced the industry to look toward comprehensive federal reform as the only path forward.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on the podcast, we dig into a new report on renewable growth in Canada, “Canada's Renewable Energy Market Outlook 2025”, a joint study by Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors and the Canadian Renewable Energy Association (CanREA). To unpack the findings and the broader state of renewables in Canada, we're joined by Leonard Kula (Vice President of Policy – Eastern Canada and Utility Affairs, CanREA), Ahmed Hanafy (Partner, Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors), and Vittoria Bellissimo (President and CEO, CanREA). Peter and Jackie asked our guests: What are your expectations for growth in Canadian electricity demand through 2035 and 2050? How does demand from AI data centers contribute? As intermittent renewable generation rises, do you see technical limits, such as reliability, that put a ceiling on growth? Do project developers source the wind turbines and solar modules from China, and should Canada push for more domestic content? Do renewables face issues with “not in my backyard” (NIMBYism)? Can renewables contribute meaningfully to meeting the fast-growing demand from data centers, which need near-perfect levels of reliability? Do you expect renewable energy growth in Alberta, given the market changes that have weakened the investment case? Content referenced in this podcast includes:Bell: Go time!

The Modern Marine Corps: MEUs, Amphibious Ship Shortages, and the Role in East Asia. Colonel Grant Newsham discusses the Marine Corps, celebrating its 250th birthday and historic legacy at Belleau Wood. Newsham describes the Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) as a flexible force of about 2,000 Marines aboard amphibious ships, capable of missions from humanitarian aid to combat. A critical challenge is the Navy's low prioritization of amphibious ships, leading to a deployment shortage. In East Asia, Marines are expected to seize key terrain and use long-range precision weapons to control maritime territory, though prioritizing missile units has reduced overall mission versatility. 1920 JOHN CARTER ON MARS

What happens when schools don't have enough psychologists to meet student needs? And how can associations help their members thrive in such an environment?In this episode of Associations Thrive, host Joanna Pineda interviews Eric Rossen, Executive Director of the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP). Eric discusses:How NASP represents over 24,000 school psychologists across the U.S., many of whom serve multiple schools due to a national shortage.The difference between school psychologists and school counselors, and why having both creates “force multipliers” for student success.NASP's advocacy work around federal funding, including the fight to restore grant money that was being used to address workforce shortages.How NASP is addressing the mental health of its members, who often work in isolated environments, under high stress.Eric's leadership journey from school psychologist to association executive, and how earning his CAE signaled a full embrace of his role as an association professional.His leadership style shift, from “doing” to empowering, and how he intentionally built trust when stepping into the Executive Director role.Why National School Psychology Week is more than recognition of school psychologists: it's a tool for public awareness and appreciation of a critical profession.NASP's upcoming 2026 convention in Chicago, expected to be its largest ever, with Dr. Miguel Cardona as the keynote speaker.How NASP is making its convention more expansive and impactful by welcoming affiliated organizations to host events under its umbrella, creating a “bigger tent” for school psychology.References:NASP WebsiteNASP Annual Convention
What if the answer to West Michigan's—and America's—housing shortage isn't massive new developments, but small homes tucked into the neighborhoods we already live in? In this episode of the Rental Property Owner & Real Estate Investor Podcast, Brian Hamrick talks with Nathan Biller, accredited ADU specialist and co-founder of My Backyard Build. Nathan has built his own ADU, permitted several more, and is helping shape local policy as a member of Grand Rapids' ADU Task Force. You'll learn: What exactly an ADU is (granny flats, carriage houses, basement conversions, detached units, and more). Why investors should consider ADUs—from the math behind rental income to the 1% rule and reduced land costs. Local and national trends—how California, Portland, Seattle, and Denver have embraced ADUs, and what's happening in Michigan cities like Grand Rapids, Ann Arbor, and Traverse City. Financing and cost considerations—real numbers on what it takes to build an ADU and how investors are paying for them. Practical challenges and solutions—utilities, zoning, setbacks, neighbor relations, and historic district restrictions. Future opportunities—policy changes and task force recommendations that could make ADUs more accessible and profitable. Whether you call them granny flats, backyard cottages, or carriage houses, ADUs are becoming one of the most practical solutions to today's housing crisis—and a smart investment strategy for rental property owners.

We have the last part of the interview with Alan Munro – this is a really good one we have to say and we think you'll enjoy more of Alan's anecdotes from when he was in the RAF and then into the world of civilian flying. We also have an exciting announcement to make regarding where and when our 600th show is going to be. That's going to be coming up at the end of the show, so stay tuned!
