“I have listened to this podcast for a few years and have learned a lot from them that have improved my finances. I listened to their last episode with Scott Hodge and I was really disappointed. There were so many follow up questions that I audibly asked that I wished the hosts would ask. There was no challenging Scott on his takes. It felt like an ad for trickle down economics when we have concrete evidence that this has not worked, and also created a larger wealth gap. It felt very patronizing to say progressive economic plans are only well intentioned.
Some questions I wished they asked is why are costs higher for consumers and profit margins are at an all-time high even though the corporate tax rates are at an all time low? They dropped 14% in 2017 and they still found a way to push prices for their own gain.
With Scott’s tax philosophy, corporate wealth is not passed down to its employees who will keep local economies thriving. It is redistributed between the executives and shareholders to further line their pockets.
Hearing the hosts be yes men really turned me off from the podcast.”
