We follow up last week's "post-election special" with a second round of discussion about the link between a second Trump Presidency and your life and finances in the military. In response to listener feedback, we dig a bit deeper into the numbers to explain why the standard military pay based on the Employer Cost Index (ECI) simply "doesn't cut it" when it comes to helping you get ahead -- and in some years even just keep up -- financially.
We then get a little academic and a little historical and explain how the policies that Trump is proposing, from tariffs on foreign goods to energy independence and reinvesting in America's manufacturing and industry bases, is not an exception in American economic policy. In fact, for over 2/3 of our nation's history, we have used policy tools like these to position America's economy on top of the world.
Tune in this week for a little bit of college-level economics and political economy, to help you better tie together the headlines and craziness of the world today, from an historic election to Ukraine to China to your stock portfolio, it's all much more tightly linked than you may have expected!
