Show Notes

First recorded in 2024, host Dennis McCuistion is joined by David Walker, former U.S. Comptroller General and head of the Government Accountability Office, for a discussion about America's mounting fiscal crisis as federal debt reaches $34 trillion and threatens the nation's economic future. Walker emphasizes that the real concern isn't just the debt amount but the debt-to-GDP ratio, which stands at 120% and is projected to reach 192% within 30 years.
