The Financial Guys

Welfare, Wokeness, and the War on Common Sense
This week on The Financial Guys Podcast, Mike Lomas and Glenn Wiggle take the gloves off as they dissect the growing dysfunction in blue-state America. From Governor Hochul’s bloated New York budget and alleged Medicaid misuse to sanctuary policies fueling violent crime, the Mikes demand accountability from failed leadership. They sound off on woke welfare incentives, eroding self-defense laws, and the growing disconnect between common sense and government policy. Plus, they weigh in on California’s wildfire lawsuits, infrastructure neglect, and the cultural importance of assimilation in a country that’s losing its backbone.
