The Hidden Costs of Short-Term Gains: Inflation, Tariffs, and Fiscal Recklessness
December 1, 2024 It’s important to understand that inflation often lags behind economic policy changes, including the imposition of tariffs. For instance, the Trump administration’s tariffs on Chinese goods, implemented in 2019, did not immediately result in higher consumer prices. The inflationary effects became evident only by mid-2021, as supply chain disruptions, higher costs of […]
Trump’s Proposed Tariffs on Mexico and Canada: A Policy Analysis
Former President Donald Trump recently announced that on the first day of a potential second term, he would impose 25% tariffs on both Mexico and Canada in response to issues surrounding fentanyl and migration.

Economic Outlook 2025 – 2035
During the first Trump administration, tax cuts initially accelerated economic growth but led to increased federal deficit spending, which soon drove up borrowing costs and ultimately slowed the economy. While many attributed the initial supply chain issues and inflationary pressures primarily to the COVID-19 pandemic, the first inflationary event was actually sparked by climate change—the […]

Political Insight: The Reverse Psychology of “Trump Derangement Syndrome”
I’ve studied what’s often labeled “Trump Derangement Syndrome” since the 1990s, and I believe the root causes include issues like racism and elements of white supremacy. Supporting someone with such views inevitably supports these ideologies, even indirectly. Some of Trump’s base might not identify as white supremacists but are drawn in due to lack of […]

The Trump Trade
Why have interest rates been going up after the Fed cut rates? Because investors concur that Trump’s economic polices will be harmful to the economy, drive up inflation, and explode the national debt. Investors have been making “Trump Trades” based on this concern. Unfortunately, a large number of investors — approximately 75% — currently expect […]

Political Overview of Economics
The latest economic analysis of the presidential candidates suggests that Trump’s fiscal policies could increase the federal deficit by an estimated $7-10 trillion over the next decade, primarily due to his proposed tax cuts and spending plans. Trump’s approach centers on lowering taxes, particularly for high-income earners and corporations, while increasing defense and infrastructure spending. […]

Climate Science: Love and Hate
by Daniel Brouse August 9 ,2024 As an economist, I have spent my career studying risk management, and in the process, I have also become a climate scientist—because climate change is the greatest risk to humanity.

The Politics of Climate Change
By Daniel Brouse As a climate scientist, I have studied the impact of politics on the climate for decades, and the United States ranks among the least prepared countries globally. It also has one of the highest percentages of climate change deniers. Politicians exacerbate this issue by obstructing necessary efforts to combat climate change. The […]
