Jobs, Debt, and Trump?s New Savings Accounts

He noted that tariffs, trade policy, and demographic shifts will shape markets more than short-term reports, warning that America?s mounting debt could trigger a future crisis like 2008. Cadin also weighed in on Trump?s newly-created savings accounts for newborns, as part of the "Big Beautiful Bill," seeded with $1,000 and designed to grow over decades.

He said presidents now act unilaterally, sidestepping Congress?s constitutional authority, and believes reviving the old name could highlight the true nature of America?s military power. Eland also previewed his new book, "Domestic Causes of American Wars: Economic and Political Triggers."
