CTP (S3EMaySpecial10) Rising Tide Reality (Not the Climate Money Laundering kind, the real Economics kind)
Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond - all in Biblical perspective
We challenge the feel good slogan “a rising tide lifts all boats” and argue the more honest version is “most boats,” especially when people sabotage their own outcomes. We connect tax policy, inflation math, and personal finance choices to a bigger question about responsibility, education, and what actually improves real life buying power.
• why “rising tide” does not lift everyone
• the Laffer Curve idea behind tax cuts
• separating charity for the unable from enabling the unwilling
• Social Security as a safety net, not a safety hammock
• no tax on tips, who benefits, and where a cap might fit
• wage growth versus inflation and real buying power
• why basic economics and accounting should be taught
• adjusting withholding to keep more money per paycheck
