About this episode
In 2017, President Trump overhauled the federal tax structure. Eight years later, the corporate tax part of the deal hasn’t quite “paid for itself,” as promised. But the personal income part, which is set to expire this year, did help some lower-income Americans pay off debt and keep up with the cost of essentials. Will Congress act to renew it? Also in this episode: The legal outlook on Elon Musk gaining access to the Treasury’s payment system; Los Angeles fire property insurance payouts could reach historic levels; and the services sector is stronger than manufacturing right now.
