Show Notes
Hurricanes Helene and Milton ripped through the southeastern U.S. leaving destruction in their wakes. They also gave new life to at least two economic fallacies. In this episode of the Money Metals Midweek Memo, host Mike Maharrey explains why anti-price gouging laws don't help in a disaster situation, and why the money spent cleaning up isn't some kind of stimulative economic boom.
