Why Work Supports Prosperity | This Week's Economy Ep. 169

​The surest path to prosperity is a job. Work provides more than a paycheck—it offers dignity, purpose, and the chance to build crucial skills and relationships. Unfortunately, government policies too often make it harder for people to work, hire, and adapt to changing economic realities. From occupational licensing and other labor regulations to outdated rules that fail to reflect today’s workforce, barriers to work can limit opportunity and economic mobility.

In today’s episode of This Week’s Economy, we’ll explore how policy shapes labor markets, why the nature of work is changing, and what policymakers can do to remove barriers so more Americans can work, earn, and prosper.
