Justin Mohr Show (Business, News & Politics, Education)

People who are about ready to retire are broke! 42% of all workers have less than $10,000 in savings and investments!  Nobody is saving money for their own retirement. As government takes more responsibility for things, the people take less responsibility. Our government is broke and will never live up to what it’s promising people and yet people support a guy like Donald Trump. Trump is promising people the moon and they believe it!  A major crisis is coming our way so prepare yourself!

Social security turns 80 years old this year and look at how it has been destroyed by these benevolent politicians who are always “looking out for us.” Social Security is currently, $25.8 Trillion in the RED right now and guys like Trump want to leave it as is! Trump said it’s fine how it is right now and we will worry about it later! How can people say Social security is a success when it’s $25.8 Trillion in the hole right now and 30% of people age 65-69 are still working!? Obviously this is unsustainable and this destruction has happened in 80 short years. How much wealthier could society be if we never had social security?  All this and more addressed on this episode!

Central Banks around the world are engaging in negative interest rates!  In a free market, negative interest rates because it completely goes counter to time preferences!  We would always prefer to have a good in the present, as opposed to a good in the future!  Negative interest rates would imply that someone would prefer a good in the future as opposed to a good in the present!  This is ridiculous and negative interest rates are even being contemplated in the United States! What does well in a negative interest rate environment?  Gold and Silver!

The Texas Republican debate was out of control!  Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz go after Donald Trump like they never have before!  In this episode, several clips are played to demonstrate what I’m calling the roast of Donald Trump!

Primary season has begun and the results from the Iowa Caucus led three republican candidates to exit the race.  With Rand Paul out of the race, this certainly leaves a void for lovers of liberty out there. There were several problems with Rand Paul’s campaign that led to his early departure from the race and I would argue lacking passion and a clear message being at the top of that list! During this episode, several clips are played from the Iowa Republican debate that was without Donald Trump.  Ted Cruz took a lot of heat in this debate and this was not a good for Ted Cruz in general.

Several clips of Donald Trump are played on this episode and they reflect his economic ignorance! Donald Trump is a trade protectionist, he’s viscous and he seeks to destroy fellow candidates. But credit must be given where it’s due and it’s that Trump is a Great Manipulator of the media and he knows how to get people to talk about him.  Is Donald Trump really what America needs right now or is he exactly what America doesn’t need right now?

President Obama was recently on CNN to talk about gun control and in this episode, several clips are played to point the many flaws in Obama’s arguments.

Let’s be honest, gun free zones should be called kill zones!

So many people like to argue that we need the government to fund space travel because without the government, it wouldn't happen!  Well, this isn't reality because it's happening now!  Private companies are flying to space and in the very near future we will have commercial flights to outer space. Rocket launches by these private companies are actually tens of millions of dollars cheaper compared to a NASA launch!  And right now, private companies are planning on mining asteroids to extract rare earth metals. This is the beauty of capitalism at work and it doesn't cost the tax payers a dime.

The Federal Reserve has finally raised interest rates!  On December 16th, the Federal Funds was raised .25%. How high of interest rates can the U.S. economy take right now since we have been addicted to 0% interest rates for 7 years!  What does our economy look like in 2016? It's going to be an interesting year for the economy and I think more people soon realize how truly shaky the foundations to our economy really are.

Economics is really the study of human action and one thing that we do know is that individuals act!  We don't know why they act but we know they act as a means to pursue an end!  Liberals/Keynesian really go off the rails when they use studies and models to justify government action because of confusing correlation with causation! Economics is not a hard science and human behavior can't be modeled like Keynesian economists like to think!
