The fiscal challenges faced by the federal government are unprecedented in living memory. But they are not unprecedented in our national history. The early republic survived its rocky financial start and carried on through various panics over the years. Judge McConnell has studied the fiscal lessons of the founding. He will join us to discuss what the Constitution has to say about the fiscal crisis we now face.
