Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu

Guest
In today’s jam-packed discussion, Tom and co-host Drew tackle some of the most pressing issues shaping today’s world—from the latest midnight vote in the Senate and its sweeping impact on government spending, taxes, and entitlements, to America’s mounting debt crisis and what fiscal responsibility really looks like going forward.



The conversation dives deep into the philosophical and practical realities behind the “big beautiful bill,” exploring the controversial cuts to Medicaid and SNAP, heightened requirements for government assistance, and the massive increase in defense spending. Tom and Drew don’t shy away from the tough questions: Is hard work really the only path forward? Can America keep up its promises to retirees and the vulnerable, or are we headed straight for a fiscal cliff?



Taking a step further, the episode explores the broader cultural wars defining the next decade in America—what values do we truly share, and who gets left behind when the math stops adding up? Tom breaks down the inevitability of economic cycles, the hard choices ahead, and why relying on endless government spending is a dangerous game.
