Summary

  • If you’re a business owner, then you know how to pay your taxes. But do you understand the basic economic principles of how those taxes work? Or how economic policy affects your business’s growth?

Today on the Building a StoryBrand podcast, Donald Miller talks with Dr. Arthur Laffer, a prominent American economist whose ideas have shaped policy from the Reagan administration through today.

He gives us an accessible primer on how taxes work -- plus, we dive into other economic policy like trade, debt, and more. It’s straightforward, easy-to-understand, and frankly, a whole lot more fun than your Econ 101 class ever was.
