The Federal Government is Broken. Who’s Got the Tools to Fix It? With Jerry Bowyer
At its core, the Federal Debt crisis is a politically-charged conflict that has threatened the American economy to its very core. With Democrats and Republicans at loggerheads to come up with solutions, the finger-pointing and inability to meet somewhere in the middle has forced Americans to wonder who’s really in charge of their well-being. Economist Jerry Bowyer joins “The American Entrepreneur” Ron Morris to assess the leadership breakdowns that resulted from the crisis, and the conflict resolution lessons that business owners can learn from watching this experience play out in the media.
