Summary

After a brief review of the history of child slavery in Rhode Island, the boys ponder the underlying causes and test drive the idea it is a lack of hope for the future—and not screens—that are behind the phenomenon. They then acknowledge NYC’s balanced budget under Mamdani, note that the average student loan defaulter is nearly 40, and then take a look at the effect of the Iran War on the bond market. Finally, the lads turn their attention to a recent Gad Saad appearance on the Joe Rogan program. Get full access to System Failure at www.systemfailure.org/subscribe
