In this episode of ITR Live, Chris Hagenow and John Hendrickson tackle a growing debate in Iowa: Should state tax policy include more exemptions, carveouts, and targeted relief—or should we stay focused on keeping rates low for everyone? The conversation dives into a series of recent proposals, including sales tax exemptions for toilet paper and vitamins, as well as income tax exemptions for tips and overtime pay.While these proposals may have some political appeal, Chris and John argue they're examples of short-term populism that undermines long-term tax reform. Each exemption narrows the tax base and shifts the burden to other taxpayers, making it harder to lower rates across the board. They warn that these types of policies reverse the progress made through Iowa's 3.8% flat tax and could erode the simplicity and fairness of the system.The hosts also revisit calls for a senior property tax freeze, explaining why exempting one group of homeowners just increases the burden on others. Instead of picking winners and losers, they say, the goal should be to reduce the size and cost of government for everyone—a message echoed by the 70% of Iowans who support real property tax reform.Later in the episode, John shares updates on his latest op-eds covering Iowa's GDP, flat tax benefits, and state comparisons, and discusses a recent written debate with economist Vance Ginn on Trump-era tariffs—all available on ITRFoundation.org.Wrapping up, Chris previews a ITR project focused on defining the principles of good tax policy and what fiscal conservatives should expect from future leaders—especially with the 2026 governor's race already coming into view.

How will President Donald Trump's sweeping tariffs impact the average Americans? Worldwide tariffs on steel and aluminum are already in place. Plus, reciprocal tariffs on all imports are set to take effect in less than two weeks. These will have short and long term effects on American consumers, but those effects won't take place in a vacuum. Trump's domestic oil production plan, his deregulation efforts, and potential taxes cuts also need to be considered to estimate the full impact of the 47th president's policies. Here to examine that impact is Vance Ginn, former Chief Economist at the Office of Management and Budget; and Michael Busler, Professor of Finance, Stockton University.Examining the Potential Impact of President Trump's TariffsTrump Begins Process to Shutter Education Dept.President Trump, Russian President Putin Agree to Limited Ceasefire

CONGRESS KICKS THE SPENDING CAN DOWN THE ROAD And once again pass a giant Continuing Resolution to keep spending until the end of December. Do you really think they are going to craft and pass 12 spending bills before Christmas? No, they won't. That means either another Continuing Resolution or a giant pork filled Omnibus bill that allows everyone in Congress to hide the pork they are bringing back to their districts so they can keep getting re elected. I've got Former White House OMB Chief Economist, Vance Ginn, Ph.D., today at 2:30. We're talking about how Congress is pretending that there is not a spending crisis. It's time to address the root issue — overspending. Excessive government spending and deficits lead to inflation, higher prices, and a weaker dollar. When the government runs deficits, the Federal Reserve prints more money by mostly buying Treasury securities to cover the deficit. Find Dr. Ginn's website and sign up for his newsletter here.
