The U.S. Constitution never guarantees the right to vote—and that gap still shapes democracy today. Jerremy and Dave expose how the Electoral College distorts representation, how felon disenfranchisement silences millions, and why reforms like ranked-choice voting could reset a two-party system at war with itself. A system without universal access isn’t broken—it’s incomplete.

More than 130 million voters never cast a ballot. Why? Because gerrymandering, voter ID laws, and felon disenfranchisement turn democracy into a maze. Jerremy and Dave reveal how politicians redraw maps to lock in wins, why ID debates leave millions shut out, and how outdated rules and money in politics fuel distrust. The barriers aren’t glitches—they’re features of a system built to keep power in the right hands.

What if America isn’t full, but underperforming? Jerremy’s math shows the U.S. could house 8 billion people with land to spare, and history proves the economy adapts. From the Great Depression’s 25% unemployment to the 2008 crash’s 15%, downturns didn’t break the system—they reshaped it. Layered on top: how U.S. foreign policy pressures fuel migration, and why abundance, not fear, defines the country’s potential. Settlers vs. immigrants, mentorship, and generational resilience round out this sharp reframe of what’s possible.

After 100+ deep dives, Jerremy and Dave cut through the confusion: immigration adds $8.9 trillion to GDP yet the system is choked by bureaucracy, a 4-million-case backlog, and the whiplash of presidential power shifts. From Dave’s personal evolution on the issue to the story of a Florida accident shaped by four administrations’ conflicting rules, this episode shows how immigration policy is less about people—and more about broken governance.
