In today's packed episode, Tom unpacks the latest geopolitical escalations between the U.S. and Iran, analyzing the breakdown of negotiations and the growing risk of conflict in the Middle East.

The conversation explores both sides of the wealth tax debate, addressing the emotional and practical grievances fueling the populist moment.We'll also tackle Europe's deadly heat wave, examining how draconian regulations and lack of innovation are costing lives, plus a bizarre turn as China trolls Europe with air-conditioned pig pens.

The Distortions of Global Wealth Taxes. Guest: Veronique de Rugy. De Rugy discusses how the UK's tax system discourages international athletes from competing at Wimbledon by taxing their worldwide endorsements. She argues that oppressive global tax schemes, such as California's proposed billionaire tax, often result in reduced economic activity and lower wage growth for middle-class workers. 161350

A proposed constitutional amendment on the ballots in California this November will impose a one-time 5% wealth tax on billionaires. Proponents of the amendment say it will bring upwards of $100 billion to California's revenue, but how did they get to that number and what other side effects of this wealth tax could be looming in the wings? Will this tax actually raise more revenue?  Hosts and finance professors Jonathan Berk and Jules van Binsbergen sit down with Stanford finance professor Joshua Rauh to discuss why wealth taxes don't often achieve their desired result.   The conversation covers the Laffer curve, behavioral responses to tax increases, and the economic side effects of cultivating a society that does not celebrate innovative talent.  Find All Else Equal on the web:  https://lauder.wharton.upenn.edu/allelse/ All Else Equal: Making Better Decisions Podcast is a production of the UPenn Wharton Lauder Institute through University FM.

In the latest episode of Taxing Times with ITR, Editor Tom Baker and Senior Reporter Sam Sholli delve into Ryan's headline acquisition of European tax firm Svalner Atlas, and consider how transformational the buyout could be in Ryan's quest for global advisory reach.Tom and Sam also explore a surge in private client tax advisory work and what is driving demand across the market. The discussion considers how firms are responding to increasingly complex cross-border needs, and how those unequipped to capitalise on the demand risk leaving money on the table. Finally, the episode examines the recent "common understanding" that allows jurisdictions to waive penalties for late pillar two filings due to a lack of available portals. We hope you enjoy listening.

Australia has endured nearly a decade of weak productivity growth, and living standards are under pressure. In this episode, Gene Tunny and John Humphreys explore the common thread connecting several major economic debates: investment and incentives. They discuss Australia's productivity slump, the Federal Government's proposed capital gains tax changes, Brisbane's Olympics infrastructure plans, and the challenges facing the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Along the way, they explain why economists place so much emphasis on incentives and what current policy settings could mean for Australia's future prosperity. Gene would love to hear your thoughts on this episode. You can email him via contact@economicsexplored.com.  What You'll Learn from This Episode Why productivity growth is the ultimate driver of long-run living standards. How savings, investment and innovation contribute to economic prosperity. The economic arguments for taxing capital gains differently from labour income. Whether Brisbane's Olympic infrastructure spending is likely to address existing bottlenecks. Why economists place so much importance on incentives when designing public policy.

Jase, Al, and Zach discuss how envy, entitlement, and political promises to punish success can quietly reshape a culture that already struggles with work, maturity, and personal responsibility. The guys dig into the subtle road from desire to destruction, warning that ruin is often sold as personal freedom long before anyone recognizes it as bondage. Zach gets hilariously roasted by a stranger who had no idea he was insulting “The Blind” to someone who helped make it.

American Airlines is temporarily suspending some summer routes. The main reason is high jet fuel costs tied to global conflict. The changes are short‑term and part of a bigger industry trend. Travelers may see fewer flights and higher prices, but alternatives are available. DeSantis wants to cut or eliminate property taxes for many Florida homeowners. To make up for lost revenue, he suggests leaning more on wealthy and non-resident property owners. That messaging sounds like a “tax the rich” argument, which is why critics compare it to Mamdani, but it’s still a tax-cut plan overall, not a broad tax increase.

After almost three years of debates and hearings, the Pittsburgh Public Schools board voted to close nine school buildings and make other big changes to the district. Host Megan Harris, executive producer Mallory Falk, and contributor Colin Williams are taking their questions about what's next to James Fogarty, the executive director of A+ Schools. Then, Megan, Mallory, and Colin dig into the latest on Pittsburgh's budget (which remains bleak) and wonder whether a proposed tax on skill games, pool tables, and jukeboxes will add much to the city coffers.

Today, we hear advocates defend their cases for San Francisco's competing tax propositions. We're getting into San Francisco props C and D. Then, we hear from a young South Bay organizer on how youth are feeling about voting this year. Then, how James Baldwin inspired this year's theme for the Bay Area Book Festival.

Next Tuesday, June 2nd, is California's 2026 primary election. And there's a lot for voters to decide on. In San Francisco, two competing propositions have become a high-stakes referendum on how the city taxes its largest employers: Prop C and Prop D.KALW recently hosted a live conversation between proponents of both Props C and D. It was co-presented with the San Francisco Public Press, and moderated by their Executive Director, Lila LaHood. The YES on C side was represented by David Harrison, director of policy at the San Francisco Chamber of Commerce. And on the YES on D side was represented by Kim Tabelloni, executive director at the San Francisco Labor Council.In this excerpt we'll hear them explain what they think big business owes to San Francisco, and the people who live here. We start by hearing Kim Tabelloni.

This Day in Legal History: Andrew Johnson Impeachment Trial EndsOn May 26, 1868, the United States Senate ended the impeachment trial of President Andrew Johnson, bringing one of the most dramatic constitutional confrontations in American history to a close. Johnson had been impeached by the House of Representatives earlier that year after clashing repeatedly with Congress over Reconstruction. At the center of the dispute was the future of the defeated South and the legal status of formerly enslaved people after the Civil War. Johnson favored a more lenient approach toward former Confederate states, while the Republican-controlled Congress sought stronger protections for freedmen and stricter conditions for reentry. The immediate trigger for impeachment was Johnson's attempt to remove Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, which Congress argued violated the Tenure of Office Act. The Senate had already voted on one article of impeachment on May 16, and Johnson survived by a single vote. Ten days later, on May 26, the Senate voted on two more articles, with the result again falling one vote short of the two-thirds majority required for conviction. The final vote of 35 to 19 meant Johnson would remain in office.After that result, the Senate adjourned as a court of impeachment and the trial came to an end. The acquittal did not make Johnson politically strong, but it preserved the principle that removing a president required more than intense political disagreement. The trial also tested the separation of powers during a period when Congress and the presidency were fighting over who would control Reconstruction. In later years, the Tenure of Office Act was repealed, and its constitutionality remained deeply suspect. Johnson's impeachment became a lasting example of how legal rules, political conflict, and constitutional design can collide in moments of national crisis.The House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee has advanced a major five-year transportation funding bill that would send about $580 billion toward roads, bridges, transit, rail projects, and highway safety programs. The measure, called the BUILD America 250 Act, passed the committee by a 62-2 vote after a lengthy markup and now heads to the full House. The bill is meant to replace the current surface transportation law, which was part of the 2021 infrastructure package and is set to expire at the end of September. Supporters from both parties framed the proposal as a way to keep infrastructure funding moving while giving states flexibility and speeding up project delivery.One of the most closely watched additions is a rail safety package inspired by the 2023 Norfolk Southern derailment in East Palestine, Ohio. That section would require at least two crew members on many trains, add inspection requirements, regulate defect detectors, and place limits on certain hazardous-material trains. Rail labor groups and the White House have backed stronger rules, while the major railroads argue the proposal is driven more by politics and labor demands than by the causes of the East Palestine crash.The bill would also create a first federal regulatory structure for autonomous commercial vehicles, including automated trucks, buses, and other larger vehicles. Industry supporters say that framework would help the United States compete globally in autonomous transportation, while transit labor leaders say the bill includes important human-oversight protections to keep workers involved and improve safety. Another contested provision would impose a new annual federal registration fee on electric vehicle owners, starting at $130 and later rising to $150, to help support the Highway Trust Fund.Backers say EV drivers should contribute to road funding because they do not pay federal gas taxes. Electric vehicle advocates, however, call the fee punitive and argue it would discourage EV adoption without meaningfully solving the trust fund's long-term funding gap.What's In The House Surface Transportation Funding Bill? - Law360The Justice Department has asked a federal court to lift an injunction blocking work on President Donald Trump's ballroom project, arguing that a recent shooting outside the White House shows why stronger security is needed. In a short filing Sunday, DOJ said the incident highlights the need for high-level security upgrades at the White House, including the ballroom, and again sought dismissal of the lawsuit challenging the project. The case was brought by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, which has opposed the project and previously refused to withdraw its suit after an alleged foiled attack connected to the White House Correspondents' Association dinner in April. DOJ had already cited that earlier incident in asking the court to end the case. According to the Secret Service, the person who fired at a White House checkpoint on Saturday was shot by officers and later died at a hospital. The filing ties the shooting to the government's broader argument that the project is important for national security.US Justice Department seeks to lift injunction on ballroom project after shooting | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week argues that Tennessee's recent decision in SAP America, Inc. v. Gerregano shows how poorly traditional state tax categories fit modern software. The court treated SAP's software licenses as nontaxable intangible property, while allowing Tennessee to tax cloud hosting and cloud-based services delivered electronically into the state. That split made sense because SAP's products were cleanly separated into licenses, hosting, and cloud services. But the column argues that most modern software is not so tidy. Even products that seem local often rely on remote tools for logins, updates, syncing, storage, analytics, customer support, or payment processing. As AI becomes built into ordinary software, the line between software and cloud-based service will become even harder to draw.The column focuses on the “true-object” test, which asks what the customer is really buying when a transaction has multiple elements. That test works when the taxable and nontaxable pieces are visible and separately priced, but it becomes much harder to apply when remote processing is hidden inside a product the customer experiences simply as software. The piece argues that states should adopt a software-specific safe harbor rather than treating every remote feature as taxable cloud access. Under that approach, software would be presumed to remain software when remote functions are limited to things like authentication, updates, syncing, security, or modest product enhancements. A state could rebut that presumption if the customer is really buying hosted processing, managed infrastructure, AI model access, inference, or other platform-level functionality. The point is not to abandon the true-object test, but to give it a clearer threshold for hybrid software. Without that guardrail, AI could give states an easy but flawed path to reclassify almost any software product with a remote model feature as taxable cloud access. This is a public episode.

Politicians often promise to tax “the rich” to fund bigger government. But what happens when high earners leave?In Episode 198 of the Let People Prosper Show, Jack Salmon of the Mercatus Center joins me to explain how taxes influence migration, investment, entrepreneurship, and state competitiveness.We discuss why high-income taxpayers are more mobile than politicians assume, why wealth taxes often underperform, and why states like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee continue attracting people and capital while high-tax states struggle.The takeaway: sustainable prosperity comes from spending restraint, growth, and economic freedom—not punishing success.

In this week's edition of the Capitol Recap, the latest from Montpelier from Vermont Public's Lola Duffort and Peter Hirschfeld break down the policy – and the politics – of taxing the rich.  

On this episode, Harold Green tackles one of the biggest obstacles to retiring early: taxes. He discusses why standard "tax the rich" plans rarely hit the real wealthy and often end up targeting professionals and small business owners instead.  Harold explains how the ultra-wealthy legally minimize taxes through smart financial structures—and how you can borrow these strategies to grow and protect your own money. If you want to keep more of what you earn, build lasting wealth, and move closer to early retirement, you won't want to miss this. Tune in for straightforward tips and real-world examples that could help you stop working sooner and start living life on your terms. Show Highlights: Discover the hidden truth behind the tax illusion [01:03] Do you think high earners and the truly wealthy are the same? [02:26] Find out how the tax code encourages investment like no other [06:48] Explore the mobility of money across borders [10:14] What to do when the tax code changes? [11:14] This is why attempts to tax the rich create political drama [14:37] Why does the system reward ownership more than labor? [15:32] Learn how to protect your income and create a flexible plan [18:33]

AI is coming for white-collar jobs. The question is whether anyone is going to do anything about it before the economy figures it out the hard way. In this episode, Igor shares a prediction he came across that stopped him cold. A blogger's model of what 2028 might look like when the jobs that underpin the entire banking system start disappearing en masse. And the only lever he sees governments reaching for before it all goes sideways.

In this episode, we're diving into the world of tax policy and its impact on businesses. Michael shares his thoughts on Colorado's Senate Bill 26-134, the Colorado Swipe Fee Relief Act, which aims to prohibit payment card networks from charging merchants a percentage-based interchange fee on sales tax. We'll explore the pros and cons of this bill, including its potential benefits for small businesses and the concerns of larger retailers. Michael also touches on the Federal Credit Card Competition Act, also known as the Durbin Amendment, and its implications for the credit card industry.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

April 27, 2026- Gov. Kathy Hochul has embraced a surcharge on second homes in New York City worth more than $5 million as a way to address the Big Apple's finances. But the proposal has logistical challenges that we unpack with Martha Stark, a New York City finance commissioner in the Bloomberg administration.

This week on the podcast, Ryan kicks things off with a wild property tax story that sparks a bigger conversation—after reading a post about a homeowner being taxed on unrealized gains, the guys break down what's real, what's misunderstood, and what it could mean for property owners if policies like this ever became widespread.Next, they dive into a major piece of legislation coming out of Kentucky, where the House has passed a bill that could wipe out all local regulations on short-term rentals. What would this mean for investors, neighborhoods, and the balance between opportunity and oversight? Expect some strong opinions and real-world implications.To wrap it up, they tackle a question every agent and creator is thinking about: when it comes to marketing properties on social media, what actually matters more—high-end, professionally produced videos that barely get seen, or raw, agent-shot content that racks up thousands of views? The discussion gets into authenticity, reach, and what truly drives results in today's attention economy.Submit your questions for Jay and Ryan to answer on the podcast here!

Mamdani's Most Taxing Threat on New York City.

Start your morning with a reality check. Ben Shapiro is back with a take that's raising eyebrows—this time going after Zohran Mamdani and the broader conversation around taxing the rich. But does his argument actually hold up, or is it missing the bigger picture? We break down what Mamdani represents in New York City politics, why "tax the rich" keeps trending, and how critics like Shapiro frame the debate versus what the data and everyday voters are actually saying. From economic myths to political messaging, this is one of those moments where the spin doesn't quite match reality. Plus, what this clash reveals about the future of progressive policy—and why the fight over wealth taxes isn't going away anytime soon. Buckle up. It's Rush Hour.

AOC brings in kid economics. Mamdani brings in taxpayer grocery stores. Then the episode somehow ends with Trump-as-Jesus memes and a UBI inflation rant. In this Dumb Bleep of the Week, Nate and Chuck break down socialist healthcare talking points, city-owned grocery stores, corporate tax narratives, Thomas Massie war powers, Trump meme worship, and why universal basic income would hammer prices. If you're into libertarian analysis, small government, free markets, constitutional limits, anti-war arguments, anti-socialism takes, and media hypocrisy, this one covers a lot of ground fast.

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) just dropped the gloves and openly declared war on the rich with a new tax targeting second homes and luxury properties. What sounds like “soaking the wealthy” today is a dangerous precedent that threatens property rights, economic freedom, and the very foundation of success in America. Once the government normalizes punishing people for owning what they have earned, the target never stays on the rich — it always creeps down to the middle class and small businesses next. This is how cities die: capital flees, jobs vanish, and the people left behind pay the real price. We also cover: Kris Cruz returns from jury duty. Rep. Lauren Boebert is ready to protect victims.

Senator Cory Booker stops by the studio to talk to Lovett about his bold tax proposal that would see the majority of Americans pay no federal income tax. Jon and the senator debate what it means when both political parties become anti-tax and discuss Trump's war with Iran, AIPAC's role in the Democratic Party, and the president's sudden firing of Attorney General Pam Bondi.
