Michael D. Tanner joins us for a discussion on the national debt and America's various entitlement programs and their implications on the country's future. With the Greek debt crisis in the news, everyone is asking "Are we the next Greece?" Is our current level of debt sustainable? How about our entitlement programs, like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid? Michael D. Tanner joins us fresh from the release of his latest book, Going for Broke: Deficits, Debt, and the Entitlement Crisis (2015). Together we discuss whether or not the American government's profligate spending can be reined in in time. Michael D.
