    Summer School 3: How government decides what to spend our money on
    Jul 23 2025
    Although it seems like the government can spend an endless amount of money, it cannot actually do all the things it wants to do. So the big question in this week's lesson is: How do we decide? Why does the government spend so much money on some things and not on others?

  • Why are we so obsessed with manufacturing?

    Why are we so obsessed with manufacturing?
    Jul 18 2025
    It seems like politicians cannot agree on a lot. But many seem to agree on... manufacturing. Leaders of both political parties have been working to try and make the U.S. a manufacturing powerhouse again.

    On today's show, what is so special about manufacturing? Is it particularly important for the economy? And if manufacturing jobs are so great, then why have companies been struggling to fill the manufacturing jobs we already have?

    For more on manufacturing in the U.S:

    - Made in America, an episode about what manufacturing work in the U.S. can be like for garment workers and how much they're paid to make each piece of clothing "made in the U.S."
    - Why aren't Americans filling the manufacturing jobs we already have?
    - What makes manufacturing jobs special? The answer could help rebuild the middle class
    - Can bringing back manufacturing help the heartland catch up with 'superstar' cities?
    - And, for more, check out the Planet Money newsletter's manufacturing series at npr.org/manufacturing.
