From Bridge Rebuilds to Flexible Benefits: A Comprehensive Look at the Future of Work and the Role of Government

This week, we have a packed episode that covers a range of topics, from rebuilding after the Baltimore bridge collapse to legal challenges facing the Securities and Exchange Commission’s new climate disclosure rule. We also delve into how China maintains an advantage by identifying as a developing country. Our interview with Liya Palagashvili from the Mercatus Center at George Mason University explores job trends, the distinction between full-time and part-time work, contract and gig work, California’s Assembly Bill 5 experiment, recent actions from the Department of Labor, and the importance of flexible benefits for all workers.

In previous episodes, we’ve discussed topics such as paying for organs, defending election integrity, free markets and the common good, being politically homeless, federal tech, federalism, understanding AI, public health, and economic freedom culture.

Join us next time as we welcome our guest Brad Polumbo from Based Politics and the Damage Control podcast. Don’t miss out on this exciting episode!
