Adam and Dr. Drew dive into government overreach and entitlement, arguing that not funding something isn?t the same as denying access. They critique the shift toward a culture of dependency and the hypocrisy of those who once opposed paternalistic governance now enforcing it. Drew highlights how excessive regulation and misguided policies have eroded personal responsibility.

The conversation turns to political hypocrisy, with Adam questioning AOC?s claims of systemic oppression despite her privileged education. They discuss the rise of "process people" who prioritize endless debate over real solutions, tying it to governance failures in cities like L.A. Adam shares a personal story about his coworker Jeff Gaines, who trained to be a firefighter but was denied due to race-based hiring, underscoring how misguided policies create more division than progress.
