Gary, Lyn and Dee discuss topics of the day. We talk economics! How has Vet Choice worked out for local veterans? Not so good. More than a six month waiting period, for people with suicidal depression. We discuss a better way to spend $1.4 Trillion. How about forgiving all student loan debt? Talk about something that would get the economy humming! We talk about college affordability. The book to read if you are interested in this is: “Paying the Price,” by Sara Goldrick Rabb. We talk about the ever churning Republican cabinet in Washington. (And, then’s been more turnover since we recorded.) We discuss the Russian Investigation. We discuss the need for real infrastructure spending and what the Democrats have proposed. We talk about the divide between rural and urban America. (This would be a good place for some infrastructure spending.) We discuss the rolling back of bank regulations. Locally, we discuss a regional hospital CEO being let go and the downsizing of St. Mary Corwin in Pueblo.
