A conversation with Paul Stebbins about America's perilous fiscal and political situation. Trillion dollar deficits are set to return within the next year and our already record high national debt will skyrocket over the coming decade. Stebbins argues that the political environment surrounding our debt and federal budget have come to symbolize the brokenness of our political system. Stebbins, a founding member of the Fix U.S. initiative with the Campaign to Fix the Debt, will explain how the debt- and our political dysfunction- makes us less competitive, hurts our economy, and challenges our global economic leadership.
