Hear us out: We ban left turns and other big ideas
View Date:2024-12-23 21:20:17
On today's episode, we have three big economic ideas for your consideration – ideas that could potentially improve the economy and make us more efficient.
First, what if we ban left turns on roads? Then, what if we gave every new baby ... a trust fund? And lastly, what if we completely got rid of U.S. congressional districts?
That's all on today's episode.
