Federal reserve raising rates?
Hello Saagar and Krystal, I have seen this term, “fed reserve raising rates” used countless times. And honestly, I have no idea what it means, I have asked several people I know if they do and all have had trouble answering that question. I know there are people like myself that listen to the show regularly that do not know and most likely do not know they don’t know. It might be a good idea to explain what exactly that means to the audience since it is relevant to the economic discourse
Hate in Washington D.C
Hello Krystal & Saagar, big fan of the show and my wife & I had a blast at the live show in Chicago - keep up the good work! The question: You frequently say that you are 'hated' in D.C. and this got me thinking - were there any times this manifested in a specific incident or made it abundantly evident to you?
States Medicaid Expansion
You have referenced before states choosing not to accept the Medicaid expansion that would provide additional funding for states. While this sounds like “free money” from the federal government, as we all know nothing is free. Can you please spend a moment to explain all the strings attached for states that choose to accept this Medicaid expansion?
Tulsi Gabbard
Loved the live show in Chicago you two! It was such a fun experience and an honor to see and experience what you guys do BEST! My question is regarding former U.S. Representative and candidate for the 2020 Democratic Presidential nomination, Tulsi Gabbard. She recently renounced the Democratic Party by stating she could no longer identify with the party's "history of corruption, war-mongering, and its continued polarization of the country in the name of woke ideology and racism". In my opinion, you two do a thorough and thoughtful job of really dissecting and critiquing many of our country's politicians and their careers in public service. I'm intrigued to know what each of you think of Tulsi Gabbard and if she would make a promising future president? (Although now she's an Independent, her chances of becoming President are slim to none, thanks to our INCREDIBLY FAIR two-party electoral system - that was sarcasm btw lol).
