We’re at a moment where support for free-market capitalism is slipping—and it’s not hard to see why. From both political parties, we’re hearing the same kinds of ideas: cap prices, punish profits, and have the government take a more active role in managing markets.
Politicians are increasingly trying to pick outcomes, override prices, and direct capital. And history is clear: this doesn’t fix capitalism's weaknesses—it replaces markets with politics.
In today’s episode of This Week’s Economy, I break down why prices and profits matter—how they act as the heartbeat of the free market, sending signals, shaping decisions, and fueling the competition that improves our quality of life.
