Produced this video for @MorePerfectUS with @chaidingari about the astronomical ticket prices for the 2026 World Cup.

NEW: World Cup tickets cost up to $11.5 million ā you could get into the last WC for $11.
This time FIFA could rake in $13 billion using dynamic pricing, resales, and lax U.S. rules.

The Inflation Reduction Act was a climate bill, not really an economic one. A year later, its impact on inflation is looking more significant and surprising than expected. @FastCompany @TalibVisram
