About this episode
In this episode, Michael dives into the complexities of institutional risk aversion, using the Marshall fire and Xcel Energy as a case study. He argues that the company's decision to shut off power during adverse conditions is a disproportionate response to the risk, and that the real issue lies in the underlying infrastructure. Michael also touches on the topic of the Save Act and the importance of addressing election integrity. He shares some surprising statistics on voter fraud, citing the Heritage Foundation and the Brennan Center. This episode explores the intersection of policy, politics, and the pursuit of truth.
