One Day This Will (Not) All Make Sense

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, cutting taxes is bad, actually, and the State Legislature is about to go cut another billion dollars from the state budget because of it. Then, do you enjoy friend of the pod Kyle Clark’s innovative evening news show, microgiving campaigns, and refusal to let the worst stories become the most important stories? Well you better set your DVR because if a big corporate mega merger goes through, it might be the "Last of Next." Then, do you enjoy the convenience of having about a month to research all of the candidates and initiatives on your mail ballot and the ability to drop them off or mail them back every election? Well we also have bad news for you on that! And finally, we dig into the practical possibility of Colorado joining the redistricting arms race to the bottom and the new way Libertarians are trying to screw with Colorado Republicans this time. 

That’s it for this episode!
