11 Economic Graphs That Explain Why Your Broke | ZFS 80

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/fan_mail/new] I pulled 11 graphs together and I want to walk you through every single one of them because I think most people are feeling this economy without being able to see it clearly. These graphs show it clearly. We start with data centers surpassing office construction in value for the first time in history and why the 200 jobs they promise are mostly custodial and security. We look at the S&P 500 versus job openings and the K shaped gap that began the exact month ChatGPT launched in November 2022. We watch a Harvard economist break down how 92% of Americans agree wealth distribution is unfair and yet nothing changes. We look at a series of graphs showing something dramatically broke in the American economy right around 1971 and then again in the mid 70s covering everything from incarceration rates to income inequality to the price of tomato soup. From there we go into unemployment. The headline 4.3% number is fake and I am going to explain exactly why. Frankie got fired. He delivers a couple burritos a week. The BLS does not count him as unemployed. Meanwhile 50% of under 30 year olds with a degree are underemployed right now in 2026. The national debt graph looks like a hockey stick sharp enough to stab somebody and it does not even include the last six years. We close on four housing graphs. Who is actually buying homes in America right now. One out of three homes purchased in 2025 was by an investor. The Blackrock Scooby-Doo buying theory. Why builders are not building. Why sellers are not selling. And why a crash is still not coming despite everything. You are not lazy, crazy, or dumb. You are just living inside a system that was designed to make you feel that way.

U.S. has a deal with Iran? | ZFS 79

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/fan_mail/new] This is the eighth time a specific set of steps toward a ceasefire has been put in front of us. The 27th time we have declared victory. The 38th time we have declared a peace agreement is right around the corner. So let me walk you through what is actually on the table, what Iran actually wants, and why I do not think this deal happens. I break down the full timeline of this week. The Apache helicopter that went down in the Strait of Hormuz. The four regions we struck in southern Iran and northern Tehran. The Iranian drone responses into Kuwait and Jordan. The planned attack on Qeshm Island that got pulled back. And the Thursday evening announcement that a deal had been reached, which Iranian media immediately contradicted. I also walk through the 14 point deal that Iran has released publicly. The $24 billion in frozen assets. The $300 billion reconstruction fund. The full withdrawal of US forces from the region. The reopening of the Strait within 30 days. And the one thing America gets to call a win, Iran reiterating its commitment under the NPT not to build nuclear weapons. Here is my honest take. That is not a win for America. And more importantly this deal cannot happen for the same reason this war started in the first place. Israel is still bombing Lebanon. 3,711 people dead since March 2nd. Trump told Bibi to stop. Bibi launched Operation Arrows of Fire instead. Iran has made peace for Lebanon a non negotiable. Israel has made peace in Lebanon impossible. That is the wall this deal keeps running into. Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/support]

"Big Corps have STOLEN our Country | ZFS 78

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/fan_mail/new] I sat down with Todd Achilles, the independent veteran running for US Senate in Idaho against a man who has been in Idaho politics for over 50 years, bragged that the Senate was an easy job in his first month, and has become a rubber stamp for whatever comes out of the White House. Todd served in the Idaho Legislature and built a reputation as one of the most bipartisan members in the capital. He is now running as an independent and was trailing the incumbent by 14 points 90 days before we recorded this. As of last week he was down four. Pay attention to Idaho. We went deep on everything. RealPage and algorithmic price fixing that has stolen an estimated $700 million from Idaho renters since 2000. Corporate ownership of single family homes and why banning purchases is not enough without a forced divestment period. The Dodge versus Ford case from 1917 that legally locked corporations into favoring shareholders over workers. The Powell Memo. Citizens United. Stock buybacks consuming 90% of corporate profits while employees fall onto the social safety net. Non compete agreements being used on burger flippers. Unions. Public lands. And why competition is the single most powerful economic tool we have stopped using. Todd answered every lightning round question I threw at him. Age limits on Congress. Term limits. Ending insider trading. Banning corporate PACs. Ending the carried interest loophole. Banning Citizens United. No super PAC money for himself. He said yes to nearly all of them without hesitation. This is the kind of candidate that gets replaced. Let us make sure that does not happen. Subscribe to the Zach Foust Show and join the Dollar Club to keep independent media alive. Drop a comment.

LATEST Inflation Numbers, Iran, and 3 BIG WARNINGS | ZFS 77

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/fan_mail/new] I recorded this one on the move. We have a missing dog and I had to get this out before I went to go find him. If you are in Camden Delaware and you see a dog named Bo please hit me up. On to the episode. Inflation just dropped this morning from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and it came in higher than expected at 4.2% annual. Energy is up 23.5% year over year. Fuel oil is up 58.9% year over year. And I want you to really sit with that because fuel oil is not just your gas tank. Fuel oil is in everything that ships, manufactures, farms, and moves in this country. That is not a gas price problem. That is an everything problem. Trump has now claimed the Iran deal was close 38 times since this war started. The war has now crossed 100 days and is more than ten days past the legal limits of the War Powers Resolution of 1973. Three US bases in Jordan and Kuwait were hit overnight. An Apache helicopter went down over the Strait of Hormuz. And Trump put out a tweet this morning about the naval blockade. Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs responded calling us the American terrorist regime. I am a veteran and I barely had a visceral reaction to that anymore. That should tell you something. Then I close with three big warnings. JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon, the IMF, and the CEO of Exxon are all saying the same thing from different angles. Something is coming and the stock market is not reflecting it. Three things you can do. Hold assets. Recession proof your job. Take care of yourself.

10 Reasons Why.....The Fed Reserve is CORRUPT | ZFS 76

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2508075/fan_mail/new] I have ten reasons why the Federal Reserve should be something every American looks at sideways. And I promise even if you have heard the Jekyll Island story before there are a couple facts in here you probably have not connected yet. We start with the name. It is not federal and it does not have reserves. As of March 15th 2020 the reserve requirement for American banks dropped to zero percent in response to Covid. Zero. We are operating an entire banking system on vibes and printed money. From there I walk through the secret 1910 Jekyll Island meeting where six men representing roughly one quarter of the world's wealth snuck away from their families lying about where they were going to draft what would become the Federal Reserve Act. I walk through the Pujo Committee that found nearly half of America's banking assets were held by 180 people, wrote up damning findings, and then did absolutely nothing because the man who wrote the final report was already connected to the same banking houses he was supposed to be investigating. I walk through December 23rd 1913 when the Federal Reserve Act was passed at ten thirty at night hours before Christmas Eve by 18 votes with 27 senators not present. I walk through World War One, the Great Depression and how the Fed could have stopped it but chose not to. I walk through the Titanic and who was on board and why that matters more than most people realize. And I close with the Rockefeller and Nelson Aldrich family connection that ties the whole thing together in a way that is very hard to call a coincidence. And then I go one step further. I think central bankers lost control around 2001. Wall Street took over. Then private equity beat Wall Street around 2008. And now the tech bros and private equity are running the global financial system together. The Federal Reserve might already be a legacy system that nobody at the top actually needs anymore.
