629-[In-Depth Version] Federal Debt: The Ticking Bomb that No One is Willing to Defuse
Yesterday, I released to you a discussion on the Federal Debt in the United States. That show should be your introduction to this problem.
But in thinking about it, I felt like it was incomplete. I wanted to present some useful materials, in audio format, for listeners who don't have a firm background in the fundamentals of the problem.
So I decided to go in-depth to try to lay out the problem very clearly.
This show is deep and difficult. It holds quite a bit of my reading to you--but also some interesting commentary.
If you're trying to understand the underlying, structural problems more clearly, listen to the show.
