Opportunity Economy: A Lil Everything for Everybody

Whew Chile! This economy is certainly economying. It just seems like whether it’s the cost of housing, groceries, or a $5 foot long, the money is funny but these bills are forreal!

But at the end of the day, the day gone end. And we’ll all still exist under the confines of capitalism. But wouldn’t it just be nice if the richest among us paid their fair share of taxes. I mean, a girl can dream. 

On this episode, Sue, Jas, and Jen discuss the economic policies put forth by both presidential candidates (one of whom filed for bankruptcy six times) and charges listeners to make their own determination about which pick is best for their bottom line. But that is after we debrief Hurricane Milton misinformation, the Maryland Senate race, and a passionate plea for Black men to recognize that Black women are not the enemy. Because―in the immortal words of the late, great Frankie Beverly―We Are One…. And that’s the way it is.
