The hosts debate whether “tax the rich” is sound policy or political theater, using California, New York, and Minnesota as case studies in how aggressive taxation collides with mobility, waste, and government mismanagement. They also break down national polling showing that while Americans overwhelmingly support higher taxes on the wealthy, they simultaneously distrust government spending — creating a tension between public sentiment and the real‑world consequences of tax policy.  The show wraps with an interview featuring Dana Micucci, author of The Years of Living Dangerously, an award‑winning journalist and spiritual teacher whose work blends global travel, ancient wisdom traditions, and modern transformation. Her writing helps readers understand how personal challenges can spark growth, presenting big ideas in a way that feels practical, relatable, and actionable.
