Econ 101: Politicians Need to Know Free Markets Work Best | This Week's Economy Ep. 127

Headlines tell the story: student loan forgiveness, tariffs, income redistribution, protectionist trade. Each is a form of central planning that shifts decisions from people in markets to lawmakers and regulators in government. No wonder the economy feels stuck — with $37 trillion in national debt, a bloated Federal Reserve balance sheet, and growing doubts about the American Dream.

What we need is a practical, principled defense of free markets — and the courage to push leaders to embrace it, even when it’s politically inconvenient.
