Retirement Lifestyle Advocates, Released on 5/11/25

In a riveting RLA Radio episode, host Dennis Tubbergen and financial analyst Karl Denninger deliver a sobering assessment of America’s economic future, challenging conventional wisdom on tariffs by framing them as economic equalizers that could revitalize domestic manufacturing while warning of a demographic cliff similar to Japan’s—with plummeting birthrates and an aging population threatening both economic growth and asset values—and offering an unsparing critique of America’s healthcare system as a bloated industry prioritizing profit over patient care; Denninger acknowledges potential reforms under RFK Jr.’s HHS leadership while cautioning investors that demographic headwinds could significantly devalue retirement assets regardless of policy interventions.

Karl Denninger is an American technology businessman, finance blogger, and political activist, sometimes referred to as a founding member of the Tea Party movement. His website is The Market Ticker.
