  • Europe's Fate, Ukraine & Russia, and the Post-American Era
    2025/02/19
    In this episode, Noah Smith and Erik Torenberg discuss how Ukraine has proven surprisingly resilient throughout the war by maintaining its economy and developing significant domestic drone manufacturing capabilities. He argues that "Europe is not toothless" despite America's shifting role, detailing how Europe collectively has greater manufacturing capacity than America and identifying three key reforms Europe needs: deregulating software, building energy infrastructure, and removing internal trade barriers. – SPONSORS: NetSuite More than 41,000 businesses have already upgraded to NetSuite by Oracle, the #1 cloud financial system bringing accounting, financial management, inventory, HR, into ONE proven platform.

US aid to Ukraine is becoming less crucial over time. Turkey's support for Ukraine is significant. Europe has substantial manufacturing capacity for military needs. Historical patterns of expansionism are relevant to current geopolitics. Putin's expansionist ambitions can be compared to Louis XIV's. Europe's aging population poses challenges for military readiness. Russia's reliance on China complicates its geopolitical stance. Economic reforms are crucial for Europe's resilience, including deregulation of the software industry. Internal trade barriers hinder European economic integration. America's role as a protector of Europe is diminishing.

  • How the Macro, Tariffs and DOGE will Impact your Bank Account | Noah Smith on How To Money
    2025/02/14
    This week, we’re bringing you an episode from the How to Money podcast, hosted by Joel Larsgaard and Matt Altmix, with special guest Noah Smith. Together, they dive into a range of topics, including the impact of tariffs, Substack’s revolutionary media model, and Noah’s unique economic philosophy. Tune in for insights on the escalating national debt, the baby bust, and the rising costs of U.S. healthcare. Noah also offers solutions, with a focus on boosting productivity and strategic immigration. Plus, don’t miss their take on Argentina’s dramatic economic decisions! -- 🙏 Help shape our show by taking our quick listener survey at https://bit.ly/TurpentinePulse. -- RECOMMENDED PODCAST: Check out How To Money Podcast on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-money/id1337718773 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6i5Cau3GShqOxHkSRT5TjL iHeart: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-how-to-money-30166328/ -- Highlights from the Episode: (for more head to https://www.howtomoney.com/tariffs-doge-and-your-money-w-noahpinion/) Trump's approach to tariffs appears to be influenced by stock market reactions. The main spending pressures come from healthcare programs (Medicare and Medicaid). Declining birth rates (around 1.5-1.6 children per woman in developed countries) pose significant economic challenges. Healthcare costs are primarily driven by providers such as hospitals, doctors, equipment, and pharma, while insurance companies, operating on low profit margins, mainly serve as cost pass-throughs, with recent slowdowns in cost growth potentially easing budget pressures. Technological advances in AI, solar, and batteries could drive future growth. President Milei's economic reforms, though initially painful, are showing positive results. -- SPONSORS: NetSuite More than 41,000 businesses have already upgraded to NetSuite by Oracle, the #1 cloud financial system bringing accounting, financial management, inventory, HR, into ONE proven platform.

  • Elon's Real Goal at DOGE and How to Fix the Debt
    2025/02/12
    This week, Noah Smith and Erik Torenberg dive into recent economic developments, exploring 'Doge'—a term for reducing government waste promoted by Elon Musk and the Trump administration—along with its ideological goals, fiscal impact, and effects on executive power, budget deficits, healthcare, social security, and government efficiency. -- 🙏 Help shape our show by taking our quick listener survey at https://bit.ly/TurpentinePulse. -- Highlights from the Episode: Doge is perceived as a mechanism for cutting government waste. Noah argues that while Doge (Department of Government Efficiency) is publicly presented as a cost-cutting initiative, it's primarily an ideological project aimed at reducing "woke" initiatives in government. As zero-interest debt gets rolled over at higher rates (around 4%), interest costs are reaching historic highs as a percentage of GDP. Austerity measures will likely involve difficult choices for the middle class. Healthcare spending in the U.S. is disproportionately high compared to other wealthy nations. Government efficiency is harder to measure than corporate efficiency due to its multiple, often conflicting objectives, the influence of democratic processes, and congressional oversight, which complicates decision-making about program value. -- SPONSORS: NetSuite More than 41,000 businesses have already upgraded to NetSuite by Oracle, the #1 cloud financial system bringing accounting, financial management, inventory, HR, into ONE proven platform.
