If the government sends you a check while everything around you gets more expensive, are you really better off?

This week, I break down inflation and wages, the Fed’s latest rate hike, President Trump’s proposed $5,000 dividend, Governor Abbott’s Texas affordability agenda, rising healthcare costs, and calls to slow AI.

We discuss why lasting affordability depends on sound money, spending restraint, more supply and competition, better healthcare incentives, and innovation.
