YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWe examine Donald Trump’s proposal to cap credit card interest rates at 10 percent and why price controls on unsecured lending would dramatically reshape the credit market. The discussion breaks down how credit cards actually work, why interest rates reflect real risk, and how a government-imposed cap would likely lead to canceled cards, reduced access to credit, and unintended harm to the very consumers the policy claims to protect. We explore why this approach aligns more closely with progressive economic thinking than free-market principles, and why incentives always matter.
