Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 - our look at the top 3 things on our mind this week - for the week of February 10, 2019.By way of background, this week Michael and I start the show by doing a brief review of the evolution of our thinking on fiscal policy these last 10 years. (2:00). Then we dive into the Top 3: 1) we take a peek behind the curtain at what "other taxes" the Gov may have in mind this session (4:37); 2) why, despite the claims of some, a "spending cap" doesn't solve (or even much help) with the state's fiscal problem (21:49); and 3) we quickly mention a debate on fiscal issues that occurred Tuesday, and which we will post also on these pages later this week (35:45).
The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
