OA748: Everything You Wanted To Know About the Debt Ceiling (But Were Afraid to Ask)

This is it! Liz and Andrew break down the debt ceiling and what can be done about it, including the Fourteenth Amendment. You'll want to share this far and wide!

In the Patreon bonus, Liz and Andrew tackle a stupendously bad article arguing against the application of the 14th Amendment.

This is a paid post on Patreon.

Really needed this. My fiance listened with me ..he's not into any of it....but he really understood this...great job!

C’mon

Great episode. I hope to find time to track down all those roll calls in the report on votes to raise the debt ceiling to examine empirically the determinants of a yes vote.
