Episode Details

Our guest today is the returning Alexander Salter, an economist and research fellow at Texas Tech and Young Voices contributor. With headlines full of economic news and a White House trying to define what a recession is/isn't while also explaining inflation, cost of living, and other issues, Alexander helps us turn down the noise and get to the terminology and language of economics that is vital to understanding what is going on in this unique environment. Alexander also delves into the odd economics of having low unemployment but a labor issue and inflation, the path that got us here, and the bipartisian habit of fiscal ill responsibility that shows no signs of changing anytime soon. We also put him on the spot as to whether the latest economic data is the peaking of the worst, or if the summer of discontent will run into the fall and winter.--------------------Questions, comments, concerns, ideas, or epistles?
