Episode 186: A Crisis of Responsibility, and Policy
Listen now
Description
We are missing 12 million workers since the early 2000s, and 3.3 million of them are men between the ages of 25 and 35. This isn’t a “noteworthy economic shift” -- it is a full-blown cultural catastrophe. Rachel Greszler of the Heritage Foundation joins us today to discuss the latest and greatest in labor economics, and what some truly viable policy solutions may be to ensure two things: that we stop paying people to not work, and that we are paying people to work. It is a very serious discussion, and the topic is as serious as it gets in the cause of human flourishing.
