Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

MidDays with Gerard Gibert 2025-11-27
Q: What are the top concerns for Mississippi small businesses right now?
Lea Long describes high costs, labor shortages, inflation, and supply chain issues as the main pressures, with tax policy and the investment climate shaping future planning.
MidDays with Gerard Gibert 2026-06-04
Q: What is the current outlook on Social Security solvency and potential policy responses?
The hosts and guests discuss looming insolvency in seven years, with possible fixes including changes to retirement age, payroll taxes, or allowing Social Security to invest in private securities, while noting political gridlock and inflationary risks of hasty fixes.
MidDays with Gerard Gibert 2025-11-26
Q: What permanent options exist to stabilize Social Security, beyond lifting the cap on payroll taxes?
Permanent stabilization involves a combination of revenue increases (not just lifting the cap, but potentially increasing rates) and adjusting benefits or retirement age, implemented gradually to protect the most vulnerable, with careful consideration of fairness and crediting benefits when revenue grows.
MidDays with Gerard Gibert 2025-11-26
Q: Before the break, what is the core problem with Social Security financing according to your analysis?
The core issue is a cash flow deficit driven by an aging population and higher benefits than current payroll tax revenues, which over time depletes the trust fund and requires significant reforms to restore solvency.
MidDays with Gerard Gibert 2026-06-03
Q: What is comparemyschool.com and how does it help Mississippi families?
It is a free tool that lets parents look up their kid's school, compare it to others in the district, state, and across America, input MAAP grades, and see how spending relates to outcomes, with a focus on transparency and real data rather than labels.
