When Politics Manipulate Data The Danger for the 99 Percent
Episode 434
Wednesday, 6 August, 2025
In this urgent episode, host Mel O, CFP, tackles the critical fallout from the unprecedented firing of the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner by the Trump administration. Mel O pulls back the curtain on how manipulating key economic data not only shakes the foundation of America’s financial system, but hits the 99% hardest—impacting everything from your job security to your retirement, investments, and everyday cost of living. Drawing on historical examples from the USSR and Argentina, Mel O warns that undermining the credibility of our economic agencies sets the stage for instability, erodes public trust, and could spiral the U.S. into recession. If you’ve ever wondered why accurate data matters—and what happens when it’s tampered with—this is the episode you can’t afford to miss.
