DESCRIPTION

Join economist Dr. Orphe Divounguy and Chris Krug as they discuss the Hidden Economic Squeeze on this episode of Everyday Economics! Everyday Economics is an unrehearsed, free-flow discussion of the economic news shaping the day. The thoughts expressed by the hosts are theirs, unedited, and not necessarily the views of their respective organizations. The duo discuss The Federal Reserve's decision to maintain interest rates. Is the labor market "soft"? How is America's conflict with Iran impacting inflation? Would rate cuts actually create economic turmoil?

The focus of The Center Square's work is state and local level government and economic reporting. A taxpayer sensibility distinguishes our work from other coverage of state and local issues. As a result of this approach, our audiences are better informed about the focus of state and local government and its cost to the citizens whose tax dollars fund governmental decisions.
