Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that a new deal in Congress to streamline clean-energy projects is a victory for common sense.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the UK must fix its dysfunctional system of apprenticeships and vocational training. The government has left too many young people with few opportunities.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the Republican realignment embraces the defects of populist economics. 

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the EU should discourage anticompetitive behavior without micromanaging businesses. Red tape often does more harm than good.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that after years of red tape, there’s reason to be optimistic about the future of nuclear energy. 

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the Fed’s gauge of stability in the banking system is flawed. Financial institutions need a clearer view of their own risks.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that neither presidential candidate shows much interest in fiscal restraint. Yet ignoring the problem won’t make it go away.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that rapid-fire devices have little purpose outside of mass shootings. Lawmakers need to act.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the EU’s centrist leaders must use the next five years to achieve a deeper and more financially sound union.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the billions being spent to revive the American semiconductor industry could be wasted if Congress doesn’t open the door to more high-skilled talent. 

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Democrats waited for too long before calling for new FDIC leadership. Installing better management at the bank regulator should be a bipartisan priority.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that cities around the world may soon confront their own “Day Zero.” Officials must act now to shrink demand and expand supply of water.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that some form of territorial concessions will be part of a negotiated end to the war Putin started. That must be Ukraine’s decision to make.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the European Union’s centrist leaders must learn their lessons and double down on achieving net zero. If Europe’s mainstream politicians care about their future, they won’t give up the fight.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that firing civil servants at will won’t fix the federal workforce. “You’re fired” works better on reality TV than in reality.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that digital twins are at the forefront of a long-awaited era of precision medicine. Though the technology might still seem closer to science fiction than reality, with the right support, investment and safeguards, this can change.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the EU’s move to impose new import tariffs on Chinese EVs is misguided. Maintaining growth while addressing the existential threat of climate change requires openness.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Congress should codify access to birth control nationwide. The Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade gave rise to legitimate concern that other well-established rights can’t be taken for granted.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that President Joe Biden can’t win another election from the basement. If he doesn’t change his approach, the election will be Donald Trump’s to lose.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Europe’s electoral shift was anything but inevitable. It’s the consequence of poor leadership. Centrist politicians need to respond with a coherent, consistent policy.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that a true coalition government will make India stronger. Prime Minister Narendra Modi should heed the message voters have sent.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the former president’s policies would maximize chaos and cruelty while doing little to address the underlying problem. If you think America’s immigration system is broken now, wait until Donald Trump fixes it.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Exxon Mobil needs to do more to match its record with its rhetoric on climate change. But true progress will require good-faith bridge-building from industry and climate activists alike.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that it would be a mistake for US and European regulators to roll back reforms intended to make bank assets safer. Officials should work together toward greater resilience, not engage in a race to the bottom.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that regulators need to strike a balance between encouraging private equity investment in health care and preventing reckless behavior. The financial unraveling of Steward Health Care, which became one of the nation’s largest for-profit hospital chains, should be a cautionary tale.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Russia’s success at downing drones and pricey US-guided munitions in Ukraine should set off alarms for the Pentagon.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that ultimately, the former president has only himself to blame for his conduct. But there’s no going back from this explosive decision. Conceivably, the Republican presidential candidate in 2024 will be nominated from Rikers Island. It’s nothing to celebrate.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Congress' inaction on regulating stablecoins poses a growing danger to investors, the financial system and even (perhaps) national security. Policymakers should pass legislation that protects investors and financial markets.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that when UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak called a general election for July 4, he very likely put an end date on his party’s long stretch of governance. The UK’s Conservatives squandered trust primarily over mismanagement of the economy. And according to the polls, many Britons are ready for a change.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that if climate change is an existential risk, surging output of good, cheap Chinese EVs is a good thing. The Biden administration ought to concentrate on promoting the adoption of such vehicles wherever they’re made — by pricing gasoline at its full economic cost, building the necessary charging infrastructure, and adapting the electric grid to tomorrow’s demands.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that President Joe Biden should take advantage of the relative calm at the border to push for real immigration reforms, including better cooperation with Mexico. Congress should also pass a bipartisan border-security bill introduced earlier this year.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that the Biden administration’s latest debt-cancellation scheme will reward rich borrowers, punish taxpayers and drive up the cost of college. Biden’s Plan B is as misguided as the original.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that regulators need to address the growing risks that nonbank financial institutions pose to taxpayers.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Asian giants are almost single-handedly keeping the world’s dirtiest fuel alive. To have any hope of meeting climate targets, the world needs both countries to change course.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that devices that convert handguns into rapid-fire weapons are illegal — and increasingly ubiquitous. The public should put more pressure on the source of the problem: gunmakers. But what’s really needed is federal enforcement of existing law.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that elected officials need to take their oversight responsibilities seriously — starting with better supervision of federal managers.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that elected officials need to take their oversight responsibilities seriously — starting with better supervision of federal managers.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that if the former president’s stated agenda is any indication, inflation is likely to make a roaring comeback.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that laws that prohibit automakers from selling new vehicles directly to consumers limit choice and worsen inflation. Overturning these anticompetitive measures would be common sense.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that China may have cheated its way to becoming the world’s biggest shipbuilding industry. But wasteful subsidies aren’t the way to fight back.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a simpler tax code system would be vastly easier for the IRS to administer and for taxpayers to understand and endure.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that policymakers are right to push to reduce carbon emissions to zero. But getting there requires a powerful incentive — which is why governments must put a price on carbon as soon as possible.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that although college isn’t for everyone, earning a degree still offers a pathway to success for many Americans. A simpler process would boost flagging enrollment and expand opportunities for low-income students.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the rise of index funds has provided millions of Americans with a cheaper and more efficient way to invest. Policymakers now must tread a fine line: protect the immense value created by index funds while ensuring these companies aren’t abusing their power.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that better oversight and more transparency will help root out cases of academic misconduct.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Biden administration is right to emphasize “place-based” policies to promote jobs and growth in distressed areas. Carefully executed, such an effort could provide good value for public money. But success depends on more than well-chosen investments, and directly creating good jobs in target locations isn’t enough.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that responsible budgets, financial stability and the transition to green energy can and must go together.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that noncompete agreements, in which employers place certain restrictions on departing workers, can have significant benefits. They can also be abused. A sweeping government ban on the practice is the wrong approach.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that unifying capital markets could unlock a lot of private investment — and help Europeans build wealth.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that stalling progress on inflation is about to test the Fed’s determination. As November's elections draw closer, the central bank needs to continue to be guided by data.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a proposed deal with Visa and Mastercard would let merchants steer customers away from the priciest payment methods, reduce costs and promote innovation.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that European leaders deserve credit for trying to provide more support without relying on Washington, but saving Ukraine demands more than good intentions.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that America’s transition to electric vehicles is underway, but muddled goals and lack of infrastructure are holding it back.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that by 2026, booming AI adoption is expected to help drive a near-doubling of data centers’ global energy use. Rather than undermining efforts to combat climate change, AI can and should be harnessed to speed the green transition.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the latest projections from the Congressional Budget Office repeat a warning made many times before: The trajectory of US government borrowing is unsustainable.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the alliance between the US and Japan has become stronger than many could have imagined. Both sides should seize the chance to make it even more powerful.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Biden administration's disastrous rollout of a new federal financial aid application shows how a needlessly complex system hurts poor students the most.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that horrific recent attacks in Iran and Russia highlight the threat posed by Islamic State’s Afghan branch. Even rivals should combat it together.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that with trillions of dollars passing through undersea fiber-optic cables every day, more must be done to protect them.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Cannabis-related traffic fatalities are a threat to public safety. Governments need to get serious.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that German lender Pfandbriefbank offers a cautionary tale about how global crises happen. Investors are worried that it might not have enough equity to absorb its potential losses, but regulators say the bank is solvent. A more straightforward approach to measuring true equity levels is crucial to protecting the global economy.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that state-level efforts to introduce a "public option" for health insurance in the US are worth watching -- and could pave the way for changes needed to bring down costs and expand access.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a recent deal in Congress issuing 12,000 more visas for Afghans who fought alongside the US against the Taliban is welcome, but America's responsibility doesn’t end there.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that California Governor Gavin Newsom's new law raising the minimum wage for certain fast-food workers is ill-conceived. Elected officials should want to fight poverty, but the measure’s narrow scope will raise costs for businesses and hurt low-income workers.

Bloomberg Radio host Barry Ritholtz speaks to Angus Deaton, senior scholar at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs. In 1976, he became a professor of econometrics at the University of Bristol and moved to Princeton as a professor of economics and international affairs in 1983. He became an emeritus professor in 2016. In 2015, he received the Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences. He is the author of almost 200 papers and six books, including The Great Escape: Health, Wealth, and the Origins of Inequality; Economics in America: An Immigrant Economist Explores the Land of Inequality; and, with Anne Case, of Deaths of Despair and the Future of Capitalism.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that Germany is giving Russian President Vladimir Putin reasons to think his tactics are working. Its decision to withhold key weapons from Ukraine will leave Europe more vulnerable to Russian aggression, not less.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that technology has helped accountants be more accurate and productive. Now — just as businesses bemoan a lack of qualified workers — generative artificial intelligence models such as ChatGPT-4 look poised to revolutionize the industry. A staid profession that’s struggling to recruit workers has a lot to gain from the new technology, if it proceeds with caution.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that one big reason the global financial system nearly collapsed in 2008 was that banks had shifted risks into the shadows, relying on insurance-like instruments that proved incapable of absorbing losses. They’re at it again. It’s a trend that officials should discourage, not endorse.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Vladimir Putin's recent threats against NATO underscore the need to solidify the defenses of the three Baltic nations — Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia — most vulnerable to Russian coercion.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that any gun equipped with a “bump stock” effectively functions as a machine gun. Regardless of how the Supreme Court rules on the issue, Congress should follow the example of multiple states and pass a law to ban the devices.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that TikTok — the Chinese-owned video-sharing app that is, not incidentally, banned in China — is once again in Congress’s crosshairs. It should be clear by now that the company’s owner has one option left: sell.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that President Joe Biden has offered some good ideas on taxes and spending. There's just one problem, his numbers don’t add up.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Securities and Exchange Commission's new rule is a balanced effort that will help investors understand the risks and costs companies face from climate change.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that policies designed to ease grading standards obscure how far behind US students really are.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the US might not be able to make all the weapons it needs to win a war with China. But Partners in the region can help.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the government’s border failure to stop illegal entries is draining public support for immigration of all kinds — and in the process threatening America’s long-term economic growth.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that few global institutions have been so beneficial — and so comprehensively neglected than the World Trade Organization. Reviving this institution is both necessary and achievable — but it won’t happen until the world’s most influential governments, and the US above all, choose to try.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the move by Alabama's lawmakers to protect access to IVF shows that pragmatic compromise on the issue is possible.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that borrowing money to boost returns is no way to ensure a comfortable retirement for the likes of firefighters, police and teachers.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the recent turmoil at New York Community Bancorp Inc. is a reminder that more equity and seasoned management are the best defenses against losses for banks, no matter what form they take.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that even if Vladimir Putin never puts a nuclear weapon into orbit, the US must move faster to defend its satellites against attack.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Europe’s security and stability depend on Russia not winning the war. Europe can either contribute more now to Ukraine’s defense or face a much bigger task constraining Russia in the future.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that by delaying support for Palau, Micronesia and the Marshall Islands, Congress is emboldening China and putting US troops at risk.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that regulators need to reject knee-jerk opposition to Capital One Financial Corp's deal to buy Discover Financial Services. Sometimes bigger is better, for competition and consumers.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that former president Donald Trump's reckless suggestion that he’d “encourage” Russia to attack NATO countries that fall short of their defense-spending commitments demands to be called out.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Vladimir Putin wants the world to believe that Russia’s economy is doing fine, and that he has the wherewithal to prosecute the war in Ukraine indefinitely. He’s bluffing, and his aggression is costing him dearly.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that by faulty bed nets have contributed to a worrying rise in malaria infections. Governments should act to fix the problem — and work to eliminate the disease for good.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that an exodus of students and the pending expiration of federal relief money is forcing US school districts to weigh the need to close schools. Although that’s certain to cause some disruption, propping up failing schools will only worsen America’s learning-loss crisis.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that by giving energy producers a hedge against volatile pricing, the EU can help attract trillions in much-needed green investment. It’s a great idea, if properly designed.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the failure of a bipartisan immigration compromise shows Republicans have no interest in governing. It’s time for the president to act on his own.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that with the right guardrails and investor protections, special purpose acquisition companies can be more than a bubble-market phenomenon.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban’s agreement to lift his hold on €50 billion of financial support for Ukraine marks an important victory for both Kyiv and the European Union. There’s no guarantee that Orban’s compliance on Ukraine or other EU policy priorities will last.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the Department of Energy's halting of new approvals of liquefied natural gas exports is bad for the US, bad for America’s allies and most likely bad for the climate.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a years-long computer fiasco that ensnared Britain's postal office workers highlights the need for stronger oversight of government technology systems.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the US and its allies need to show resolve against Kim Jong Un’s nuclear saber-rattling but avoid making tensions worse.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that rather than try to control what students do on their phones, policymakers should be focused on removing them from school entirely.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the absence of Americans studying in China will weaken the US’s ability to deal with its chief rival.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that to secure supplies of critical materials for the green energy transition, governments would be better off getting out of the way and letting the market do its job.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a barrage of antitrust actions and lawsuits are helping to loosen the National Association of Realtors’ grip on the industry. Keep it up.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a bigger child tax credit and incentives for investment make sense. But Congress still needs to figure out how to pay for it.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Republicans had plenty of chances to nominate someone who can represent their party with competence. Instead they’ve chosen the road of anger and spite and endless division.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial on why the push by US and Europe to confiscate Russian state assets could backfire, by providing a excuse for governments to withhold the military aid Ukraine needs now -- and hand victory to Vladimir Putin in the process.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a new EU immigration pact has the potential to deter illegal entry and reduce strains on frontline countries, but only if the execution matches the ambition. The deal won’t solve the problem overnight, but it’s still a significant political achievement.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the commercial aviation system is groaning under the demands of surging global traffic and outdated technology. Additional resources and organizational reform are critical to prevent future disasters.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the SEC should have tried harder to reform the unregulated spot trading markets. The fact is, cryptocurrency markets are a mess.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that in an election year, politicians will want to show they’re working to lower drug prices. But when it comes to importing medicines, price negotiations are best left to the federal government.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Rachel Rosenthal presents an editorial arguing that reining in pharmacy benefit managers could create more loopholes. Lawmakers aiming to lower the cost of prescription drugs and make their prices more transparent should proceed with caution.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the deal struck by Republicans and Democrats in Congress to expand Pell Grants to short training programs would boost employers and help students gain vital skills — and show that bipartisanship isn’t dead.

We explore it all with the Bloomberg Opinion team. Columnists Lara Williams, Romesh Ratnesar, Lisa Jarvis, and FD Flam join. Amy Morris hosts.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that the EU has averted disaster with a reform of the Stability and Growth Pact, but the new regime still contains some of the old one’s flaws. Given Europe’s history of fiscal dysfunction, reaching any kind of viable agreement is a triumph.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that reports of rampant sexual misconduct at the FDIC are symptomatic of broader organizational dysfunction. But no amount of added rules will matter if the agencies responsible for enforcing them aren’t well managed and staffed with sober professionals.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that cities everywhere are facing a housing crisis, and it’s repelling skilled workers, undermining growth and even fomenting political extremism. New York Governor Kathy Hochul might be able to show us a way out, and she should at least get credit for trying.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that a shameful effort by representative Elise Stefanik to punish a federal judge for making plain factual statements will sow greater public distrust and undermine the rule of law.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Obamacare is too costly for many Americans, but replacing it isn’t the answer.

Bloomberg Opinion editor Romesh Ratnesar presents an editorial arguing that Jerome Powell and the Fed have done a good job steering the economy toward a soft landing. But if investors commit too heavily to that scenario, any subsequent need to boost rates could bring greater financial instability.
