Tariffs, Inflation, and the U.S. Economy | A Conversation with Economist Roy Cordato | Locked In

Dr. Roy Cordato, Senior Economist Emeritus at the John Locke Foundation, joins Algenon Cash for a wide-ranging discussion about the current state of the U.S. economy.

The conversation explores the role of tariffs, inflation, government spending, federal debt, and interest rates, and examines how national economic policy is shaping the business climate across the country.

Cordato also brings the discussion closer to home, explaining how these macroeconomic forces influence North Carolina’s economic growth, investment environment, and cost of living.

Topics include:

• The real impact of tariffs on the U.S. economy

• Why inflation has remained persistent

• Risks associated with federal debt and government spending

• The outlook for economic growth and recession
