Author: Dennis Tubbergen January 26, 2025 Duration: 43:45
Dennis Tubbergen hosts Lawrence Reed, chairman emeritus of the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE), on this week’s RLA Radio show. They discuss the new Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and its potential impact on federal spending. Reed emphasizes the critical need to control federal spending, highlighting the $1.8 trillion deficit and the high interest on national debt. He suggests eliminating entire departments, like the Department of Education, to save costs. Reed also shares historical insights from his article on Joe Dodge, a banker who helped Germany and Japan recover post-WWII by cutting spending and controlling inflation. They draw parallels to modern challenges, such as Argentina's recent economic reforms under President Javier Milei. Reed stresses the importance of public support and congressional action for DOGE's success. The conversation underscores the urgency of addressing federal spending to avoid economic crisis. Lawrence W. Reed is President Emeritus of the Foundation for Economic Education (FEE), Humphreys Family Senior Fellow, and Ron Manners Global Ambassador for Liberty, having served for nearly 11 years as FEE’s president (2008-2019). He is the author of the 2020 book, “Was Jesus a Socialist?”, as well as Real Heroes: Incredible True Stories of Courage, Character, and Conviction, and Excuse Me, Professor: Challenging the Myths of Progressivism.
