Show Notes
Stephen Moore Co-Founder, Unleash Prosperity joins The Ray Stevens Show to discusses the high cost of living in major "blue" cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and New York, attributing it to restrictive fiscal policies and high taxes. He contrasts these challenges with the economic growth and affordability found in Southern states like Tennessee, Texas, and Florida, and mentions the fiscal health of Wisconsin.
They also talk about broader social issues, including declining birth rates and the impact of education systems, specifically comparing the performance and funding of private and Catholic schools versus public schools in Chicago. Additionally, Moore touches on political topics such as the Chicago Teachers Union's protests and the benefits of school choice programs.
