In Episode 16, Tariffs are back in the news. On February 1, 2025, the U.S. announced new tariffs on Canada and Mexico—only to delay them for 30 days. What does this mean for American businesses, workers, and consumers? In this episode of Rubber Meets the Road Economics , Hunter Craig sits down with Professor Edwin T. Burton of the University of Virginia to discuss the broader economic implications of trade policy. Professor Burton explains how free trade creates both winners and losers—boosting economic growth overall while disrupting certain industries. The challenge for policymakers, he argues, is not to block trade but to support those who are negatively affected. Using examples from U.S. history, he highlights why tariffs tend to raise prices for consumers, disproportionately impacting lower-income households. The conversation also turns to the U.S. national debt, currently at $36 trillion and projected to hit $50 trillion in under a decade. Professor Burton explains why healthcare spending—not defense or Social Security—is the biggest driver of America’s debt problem and why economic reforms must address this issue first. Finally, they discuss Social Security reform, with Professor Burton offering insights on how a defined contribution model could provide better retirement outcomes while keeping the system sustainable.

In this episode, Hunter Craig sits down with renowned economics professor Dr. Edwin T. Burton from the University of Virginia to explore complex yet pressing issues in the U.S. economy. Together, they tackle the roots and realities of the U.S. debt crisis, the complications of the healthcare system, the limitations of Social Security, and the true impact of infrastructure spending on economic growth. Dr. Burton brings clarity to these critical topics, providing a deep dive into how economic policies shape everyday lives, as well as the constraints on solving these challenges through traditional means. From healthcare reform to Social Security alternatives, this episode digs into the policies that could change the financial future of America. Episode Highlights: Understanding the U.S. Debt Problem: Dr. Burton explains why simply cutting spending or raising taxes won’t fix the national debt, highlighting the challenges of high marginal tax rates and limited spending options. Healthcare System Issues: Discussing the inherent flaws in U.S. healthcare, Dr. Burton argues for a system driven by individual accountability and market forces, where insurance is reserved for catastrophic events rather than everyday healthcare expenses. Rethinking Social Security: With stark insights into Social Security’s financial limitations, Dr. Burton makes the case for mandatory IRAs as a sustainable alternative for Americans’ retirement, emphasizing wealth creation over entitlement payouts. Infrastructure Spending and Economic Growth: Questioning the efficacy of government infrastructure spending, Dr. Burton outlines the pitfalls of politically-driven projects and the inadequacy of growth alone to solve systemic financial issues. Quotes from Dr. Burton: “People are at the breaking point with taxes—raising them won’t solve our debt crisis.” “In the U.S., we’re spending more on healthcare than any other developed country, yet our outcomes are worse.” “Social Security is a terrible system; it creates no wealth and leaves no legacy for one’s family.” “You can’t drive the bus with economic growth alone—there’s a limit to how much can be government-driven.” “Government is not very good at providing healthcare, and for those who think it is—good luck.” Takeaways: Dr. Burton’s commentary sheds light on the foundational flaws of current U.S. economic structures, stressing the need for reform in healthcare and Social Security and cautioning against over-reliance on infrastructure spending as an economic solution. His views challenge listeners to rethink policy assumptions and envision more sustainable economic frameworks.

In this episode of Rubber Meets the Road Economics , Hunter Craig and Professor Edwin T. Burton dive into the potential economic crisis that may be on the horizon. They explore key economic signals like the Federal Reserve’s recent rate cuts, the rise in Treasury yields, and the impact on mortgage rates. Together, they analyze whether these indicators point to an impending financial downturn and what it means for everyday Americans. Professor Burton sheds light on how market forces dictate these economic shifts and offers a candid view of the Fed’s role, suggesting that it often follows market trends rather than leading them. Key Topics: The Federal Reserve’s September rate cut and why it happened. How Treasury bill yields impact Federal Reserve policies. The role of supply and demand in driving mortgage rates higher. The rising divide between wealthy Americans benefiting from asset inflation and the struggles of working-class citizens. Why rent control policies may hurt those they're intended to help. A candid discussion on inflation, government debt, and what it all means for the future of the U.S. economy. Quotes from the Episode: “The market determines rates, not the Federal Reserve.” “Inflation isn’t just a number; it’s the value of money dropping.” “If supply goes up 50%, and demand stays the same, the value drops—simple economics.” “The Fed’s role is more reactionary than most people realize.” “Rent control sounds good but ultimately freezes out low-income people from communities.” Financial Disclaimer: The information provided on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only.
