A 2023 report by Stanford University found that Black taxpayers in the U.S. were audited three to five times more often than other groups. Since then, there’s been little public evidence of reform. With IRS layoffs and political efforts to roll back modernization funding, this episode asks: has anything actually improved—or is the disparity still quietly ongoing?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#taxes&lt;br /&gt;#taxdiscrimination &lt;br /&gt;#audit&lt;br /&gt;#taxaudit&lt;br /&gt;#irs&lt;br /&gt;#taxtime&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the webiste for more info&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;#social issues&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research </description>

Audited While Black: The IRS Discriminatory Tax Audit Process

<description>From a financial standpoint, food delivery apps can become surprisingly expensive due to added fees, tips, and marked-up menu prices, often turning a $10 meal into $20 or more. Over time, frequent use can lead to significant overspending, making it harder to save money or stay within a budget. The convenience also encourages impulse ordering, increasing how often people spend. Beyond finances, relying heavily on delivery apps can negatively affect health, as people may choose less nutritious, high-calorie meals more often instead of balanced home-cooked options. Compared to cooking at home, which is both healthier and more cost-effective, overusing delivery apps can strain both your wallet and well-being, making moderation important.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the webiste for more info&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;#social issues&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research </description>

Tap, Order, Repeat: The Real Costs of the Food Delivery Culture

<description>Distracted driving covers a wide range of activities, but it's incredibly dangerous and can lead to deadly consequences. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) estimates that over 3,200 people were killed in 2023 due to distracted driving. Recent handheld bans are helping to enforce this issue, but there's still much work to be done. In this episode, I dive into the topic, discuss its impact, and share practical tips on how you can avoid driving distracted.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#distractedriving&lt;br /&gt;#textingwhiledriving&lt;br /&gt;#cellphonebans&lt;br /&gt;#carsafety&lt;br /&gt;#treyevans&lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the webiste for more info&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;#social issues&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research </description>

Decision Fatigue- Too Many Choices

<description>On This Episode of &lt;a href="http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;The People’s Voice Podcast&lt;/a&gt;, I discussed how teacher shortages in U.S. K–12 schools are pushing districts to rely on private staffing agencies, some which are owned by private equity firms. While these agencies help fill urgent teacher vacancies, they can create long-term dependence, increase costs paid with taxpayer dollars, and in some cases are linked to poorer student performance and lower test scores. Other concerns such as high turnover, labor violations, and weakened teacher-student relationships have also been created. Sadly this straregy is often praticed in failing schools which are commonly in low-income, urban, and rural communities where teacher shortages are the most severe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;#teachershortage&lt;br /&gt;#privateequity&lt;br /&gt;#americaneducation&lt;br /&gt;#k12&lt;br /&gt;#staffingcompanies&lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;#treyevans&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Check out the webiste for more info&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"&gt;http://treyevansthepeoplesvoice.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;#thepeoplesvoicepodcast&lt;br /&gt;#social issues&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research </description>
