The Fiscal Time Bomb Washington Won’t Fix with Dr. Patrick Horan | LPP 196

from Let People Prosper · host Vance Ginn, Ph.D.

Washington keeps spending like there’s no tomorrow. The problem is—there is. And the bill is coming due. Trillion-dollar deficits are now the norm. Interest costs are exploding. Politicians talk about “fiscal responsibility,” but the numbers tell a very different story. This isn’t a temporary problem. It’s structural.In Episode 196 of the Let People Prosper Show, I interviewed Dr. Patrick Horan of Fiscal Lab on Capitol Hill to break down what the data actually says about where we’re headed—and why it matters for growth, inflation, and long-term prosperity. If you want a clear, data-driven look at America’s fiscal trajectory, this is a conversation worth your time.🎧 Listen to the full episode of the Let People Prosper Show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube.
