Nick dedicates Episode 26 to three-time Super Bowl champ, and Philadelphia native, Herb Adderley. Continuing Nick’s “connections” theme, serendipitously, by reversing 26 to 62, we arrive at the subject of this installment: America’s paltry 62 percent labor participation rate. Nick peels back the onion on the collective causes, from COVID shutdowns to school shutdowns, that have resulted in America’s labor crisis. Moreover, you gain a vivid understanding of how the U.S. economy will never function properly if entitlements, asset bubbles, and government spending continue to expand, and vaccine mandates remain. But don’t worry, the glamour elite have it all under control.
