Some Chicago alders balked at Mayor Brandon Johnson's inclusion of a corporate head tax in his 2026 budget proposal. In response, a group of moderate and conservative city councilors put forth a list of alternative proposals that does not include the tax on businesses; instead they rely on raising taxes on garbage collection and liquor sales, as well as budget cuts, which the mayor rejected in turn. Yesterday, we heard from alders about why they're championing their alternative proposal. Today, In the Loop hears from Julie Dworkin with the Institute for the Public Good and Asha Ransby Sporn with the Black Voter Project for their takes on the alders' plans.

In this episode of Good Morning Liberty, host Nate Thurston returns after a brief hiatus to discuss various major happenings, including the potential Netflix acquisition of Warner Brothers, the impact of antitrust laws, and the economic consequences. Nate critiques the concept of antitrust laws, citing them as anti-American and anti-capitalism while explaining how historical market shifts, like Netflix's rise over Blockbuster, demonstrate the dynamic nature of markets. Furthermore, the episode digs into political reactions from figures like Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders, the role of government in business consolidations, and implications for consumer choice and competition. Additional topics include recent revelations from Venezuela, healthcare cost proposals from Josh Hawley, and public reaction to the potential merger. The show wraps up with an examination of Dan Goldman's 'Robinhood Act' proposal aimed at taxing billionaires' lines of credit, scrutinizing its feasibility and economic rationale. 00:00 Intro 01:46 Upcoming Topics and Antitrust Laws 05:33 Netflix and Warner Brothers Merger 13:03 Government's Role in Antitrust 16:42 Public Reactions and Criticisms 23:49 Right-Wing Concerns and Free Market Debate 35:41 Exploring Anti-Competitive Barriers 36:20 The Rise of Netflix 37:10 Debating Antitrust Laws 40:34 The Blockbuster Monopoly 43:28 Netflix's Market Disruption 46:55 The Future of Streaming Content 52:44 Taxing the Rich: The Robinhood Act 01:08:40 Final Thoughts and Sign-Off

Episode Summary:In this episode of Explaining History, Nick takes a deep dive into the history and necessity of taxation, connecting the Tudor reign of Henry VII to the modern crisis of inequality in the UK.With the Green Party surging past Labour in recent polls by promising to "tax the rich," we explore why this idea is about more than just funding public services—it's about democracy itself. Nick draws a parallel between the "overmighty nobles" of the 15th century, whose private armies threatened the crown, and today's billionaires, whose vast wealth allows them to purchase political influence and bypass democratic norms.From the dismantling of the post-war social democratic consensus to the devastating impact of austerity (or "de-development") on British society, we ask: Can a society survive when capital has captured the state?Key Topics:The Green Surge: Zack Polanski and the political shift to the left.Henry VII's Strategy: How taxing the nobility prevented civil war and consolidated power.Rentier Capitalism: Why "lazy money" prefers property to innovation.Austerity as De-development: The stealth privatization of British life.The Threat to Democracy: How extreme wealth inequality destabilizes nations.Explaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

Türkiye'de sigara tüketimi artık bireysel bir tercih alanının çok ötesine geçmiş, adeta toplumsal bir “kendine zarar verme ekonomisi” inşa etmiş durumda. Sağlık Bakanı'nın “Toplumun üçte biri sigara kullanıyor” açıklaması, aslında hepimizin bildiği ama yüksek sesle söylemekten kaçındığı gerçeği yeniden hatırlatıyor. Bir anlamda biz sigaraya değil, sigara bize bağımlı hâle gelmiş. Karbon emisyonlarının çevreye bıraktığı tahribat “karbon ayak izi” ile ölçülüyor ve ona göre politikalar şekilleniyorsa, nikotinin topluma bıraktığı iz de benzer bir ciddiyetle değerlendirilmelidir.

Taxing and redistributing wealth to reduce inequality is an idea popular on the left, and is being pushed by some politicians including Green Party leader Zack Polanski. But it's loathed by others who believe people should be able to hang on to what they have, whether that's earned or inherited.This week we're joined by Frances Howe, co-founder of local collective Bristol Redistro, which rather than a top-down tax asks people who have more money than they need to voluntarily chuck some of it into a pot. This is divided up by a panel of locals and given to grassroots organisations. Its most recent funding round helped groups in Knowle West, St Paul's, Hengrove and Hartcliffe as well as others serving marginalised communities across the city. How does this work, and what difference does it make? Why is it different from giving to charity? And with the cost of living biting, why should people be giving up their wealth in the first place? We get into these questions, and more on this latest episode of Unpacked.The Bristol Cable is Bristol's community-owned cooperative newsroom – fiercely independent journalism that puts people before profit.

The UK's net financial debt this year will be £2.6tn, meaning "one in every £10 the government spends is on debt interest". How are UK markets reacting to this? Leanna Byrne examines with our experts. Also, in Australia, two 15-year-olds are taking their government to court over a new law that bans anyone under 16 from using social media. And Iran is bringing in a higher fuel price, but only in certain situations. Presenter: Leanna Byrne Producer: Ahmed Adan Editor: Justin Bones

In today's explosive episode, we dive headfirst into the chaos of the UK Autumn Budget 2025 – a day that started with high drama and ended with Chancellor Rachel Reeves facing her toughest grilling yet. Just minutes before she rose in the House of Commons to deliver her fiscal blueprint, the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) dropped a bombshell: the national budget is set to balloon by a staggering £29 billion by 2029-30. Was it a deliberate leak from Labour insiders, a Tory sabotage, or just bureaucratic bungling? We unpack the fallout, the finger-pointing, and what it means for your wallet. Hosted on Acast.

As global inequality reaches staggering new heights, South Africa, Brazil, and Spain have joined forces under the Global Coalition to Tax the Super-Rich—a historic push to reclaim public power from private wealth. Oxfam South Africa's G20 Senior Policy Advisor, Isobel Frye, joins us to unpack what this bold move means for justice, equity, and the future of development funding.

Zohran Mamdani — the Ugandan-born Muslim socialist making a serious run for New York City mayor — is sparking national debate. Is he the city's next AOC… or a dangerous radical? In this episode, Henry and Danny break down Mamdani's platform and persona — from his rent freeze and city-owned grocery stores to his viral exchange on Israel. They debate the so-called “Sharia socialist” narrative, why conservatives are losing their minds over his wardrobe, and how his rise exposes deep shifts in American populism. We explore:

Luke 2 is more than a Christmas reading. Pastor Ron Meyer shows how “taxing times” force us into God's positioning. Bethlehem looked illogical. The manger looked like failure. Yet God was fulfilling prophecy, providing a Passover over hell, and sending provision before anyone saw it. This message calls leaders and disciples to drop self-reliance, embrace obedience, and walk by what is written—not by sight.Scriptures referenced: Luke 2:1–7; Micah 5:2; Psalm 22; Psalm 42; 2 Corinthians 5:7; Isaiah 64:4 / 1 Corinthians 2:9; Matthew 2:13–23; Matthew 7:21–23; Hebrews 11:1.Chapters00:00 Intro: Instant Classic + Theme00:30 “Moving things around” in hard times02:30 Masks off.

We discuss a breakthrough in medical innovation that has helped restore sight to patients with macular degeneration, and highlight the growing problem of political crassness in this week's foolishness.

The man who taught Reagan to cut taxes tells Michael why Britain's economy is 'disappearing', why the Bank of England shouldn't exist, and why he still believes low taxes – and a little optimism – can send Britain 'to the moon and the stars.'

The Clarey Podcast - The Case for Taxing Corporate Enshifitication by Aaron Clarey

Hour 4 Audio from WGIG-AM and WTKS-AM in Brunswick and Savannah, GA

On Cincinnati Edition's weekly news review, local journalists join us to talk about the big stories from recent days.

The proposal to tax the ultra-rich that could address some of France's budget woes. The last paperboy in Paris, who has been hawking newspapers for nearly 50 years, tells of challenges and successes from Pakistan to Paris. And the man who ended the death penalty in France enters the Panthéon.  As French politicians remain deeply divided over how to address the country's growing deficit, one measure appears to unite public opinion across the political spectrum: the Zucman tax. Devised by 38-year-old economist Gabriel Zucman, the idea is to add a two percent tax on the ultra-rich, who often use holding companies to shield their wealth from income taxes. While the left sees it as fiscal justice, many on the right are concerned about additional taxes in a country that already has a lot, and maintain taxing the wealthiest will drive them abroad. (Listen @2') Ali Akbar left his native Pakistan aged 18, looking to make enough money to buy his mother a decent home. Since arriving in France in 1973, he's managed to do just that – selling newspapers like Le Monde on the streets of Paris's Left Bank district. A popular figure in the neighbourhood, Akbar – the capital's last remaining hawker – was recently selected for the National Order of Merit by President Emmanuel Macron, a former customer. He talks about loving his work, the collapse of the newspaper culture and how recognition by France will help to "heal" the injuries of his past. (Listen @18'30'') France abolished the death penalty on 9 October 1981. Forty-four years later, the justice minister who fought to change the law, Robert Badinter, is entering the Pantheon, the monument dedicated to French heroes. (Listen @11') Episode mixed by Cécile Pompeani Spotlight on France is a podcast from Radio France International.

New York State Senator Jabari Brisport (D, WF, 25th Senate District), chair of Committee on Children And Families, and New York State Assemblymember Alec Brook-Krasny (R, C, Coney Island, Bay Ridge), talk about Zohran Mamdani's proposal to tax corporations and the 1% in New York State to pay for programs to support working class New Yorkers and the feasibility of passing tax reforms in Albany. 

This is the People's Countryside Environmental Debate Podcast. Every episode we conversate around two listener questions, and where possible, spin the conversation around to the environment in some way, regardless of the topic covered. In today's episode we begin with an educational question from Unity in Paddock Wood, Kent, England - “What do you think about bringing climate change into the mainstream UK curriculum in schools? 10 years ago children's favourite word was minion, now it's climate change. Do we risk scaring children by catastrophizing? Is it better to teach older school children solutions and tools? Are we making the younger ones anxious? Do we risk promoting political activism if we educate about climate change in the wrong way? If we teach that we have no agency for change we risk just making children grow up angry, instead of driving actual change”.Alex feels that the subject of climate change really would be best added to the subject of geography. He recalls being taught about earthquakes, pollution, and overpopulation, so there's already catastrophising in schools. He recalls his time in secondary school, and concludes that climate change really should be there as a subject.William brings this whole conversation around to whether this is once again an avoidance of our own mortality issue? That the subject of death around children can be an even more taboo subject than sex for example.  Stuart recalls a conversation with a teacher after listening to a past episode  about climate change in the curriculum.  And they were absolutely convinced that climate change had infiltrated every single lesson, but it was so subtle that nobody noticed it.We then move onto this taxing question from Brice in Crieff, Scotland - “Should we be taxing on wealth and assets and not just income? The super rich are buying up everything and enslaving people to be in debt to them. Can we do anything until wealth is more fairly distributed, like after the second world war in the UK?”Alex thinks that  we should tax the rich which he feels everyone can agree with, but the way our societies are run, with corrupt governments, they're money hungry and therefore the rich live in the best conditions because of that. So there's not really much we can do.  Who is going to tax the rich? The government, who are corrupt?Stuart raises the point that he doesn't necessarily think the super rich are intentionally enslaving us, but the by-product of process does. William brings up the idea of a universal income, where everyone can afford  the basics in their life, food, shelter etc. He goes onto say that he feels that is maybe idealistic, and that we humans are greedy buggers, and we don't want anyone to have a slice of our pie.Stuart comes up with an environmental action: We need to be more realistic with environmentalism and not think about utopian ideals. We need balance and measure.William's action with an environmental twist: He encourages you to  get off that aspiration train, and that in itself will definitely have a positive impact on the environment.Alex's environmental action:  We always talk about the tool and the master quite a lot. Money is a tool, not a master. It doesn't shape your life. It's what you use to live. It's not everything in life. So just think of it that way. It's a tool so use it as one.What do you make of this discussion? Do you have a question that you'd like us to discuss?
