632 - 10 Transportation Methods of the Future Aug 08, 2020

Show notes

Show notes

The specter of the American government declaring bankruptcy gets trotted out particularly often any time there’s a change in the majority party. Because we’ve been told for decades what a large, scary number America’s National Debt is, the populus fears that the time when it causes another Depression could come at any time.
