Your daily dose of news that matters
We examine the headlines and the reports from Government and business to clue in readers and listeners about the truths in the economy
Regular Guy Economics exists to cut through noise, narratives, and spin. Our mission is simple: read between the lines of government reports, corporate disclosures, earnings calls, and policy announcements to uncover what’s really happening in the economy—and what it actually means for everyday Americans.
Too often, official data is presented in ways that obscure reality. Headlines celebrate “strong” numbers while household budgets tighten. Corporations boast about efficiency while quietly exporting jobs overseas. Politicians claim success while structural weaknesses grow beneath the surface. At Regular Guy Economics, we look past the surface-level messaging and dig into what isn’t being said.
We analyze:
Federal Reserve releases and labor data
SEC filings and earnings reports
Policy shifts and their downstream consequences
Corporate behavior that signals future risk
Market trends that affect real people—not just investors
Our commentary blends real-world business experience with economic common sense. We don’t speak in academic jargon or Wall Street code. We translate complex financial signals into plain English, so readers can understand what’s coming—and prepare for it.

I have watched my entire life the methods of reporting economic data be less and less precise. I followed shadowstats.com for many years and read Walter J Williams (“John Williams to his subscribers) opinions and presentations that showcased the government’s capacity to remove volatile elements of the economy and to build presentation based not on facts but on suiting the purpose of the reporting entity and the executive government officials who wanted votes, support and compliance.
It took our beautiful republic two hundred and twenty years to reach one trillion dollars in Government debt. We probably have $60 trillion dollars or more including state, local and the deficit of the Social Security department to pay its promised obligations. We are three hundred million plus citizens and for us to allow a few thousand elected officials and bureaucrats to bind us to an output which is the slavery of debt. Be mindful, be watchful and good luck!
