Synopsis
A tax break that started out as a way for the government to incentivize homebuying has primarily benefited the wealthy, research shows, while costing the U.S. government $30 billion a year in tax revenue. That amount may more than double in 2026. Also in this episode: OSHA works on new heat guidelines for the workplace, construction spending falls, and the Federal Reserve wants interest rates to be “neutral.”
