Does Anyone Care About the National Debt?

About this episode

Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey tackle the national debt as it climbs past $40 trillion, asking whether voters or Congress actually care enough to do something about it. They also react to Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy’s concerns about his daughter attending Harvard and debate whether parents should trust how they raised their kids when they head off to college. Later, Steve and Kristin reveal the results of their Extra Points survey on data centers and discuss why tech companies have done such a poor job earning the public’s trust. Plus, another controversial technology enters the conversation: Flock cameras.
