About this listen

 What do today’s tax policies really mean for the future of Social Security and retirement? Economist Teresa Ghilarducci joins Josh to break down a wave of new proposals, including the Trump-backed MAGA accounts and tax cuts on tips and Social Security income. Together, they dig into what these changes signal for long-term economic stability, especially for working families and retirees. The two cover the unraveling crisis in long-term care, the decline of sustainable retirement plans, and how Medicaid struggles to fill the gaps. Teresa shares her perspective on the shift away from defined benefit pensions, the rise of 401ks, and why America’s aging population demands a new approach to policy.
