In 2014, Miami Dade County settled for $1.6 Billion against the lawsuit by the federal government because our failing sewage and septic system and agreed to fix it by 2025. Since then, little has been done, posing a threat to our environment as seen by the recent fish kill in Biscayne Bay, to our economy due to dangerous bacteria in our waterways for which many tourists flock to, and to our health since the waste is seeping into our sole source of drinking water, the Biscayne Aquifer. Florida State Senator Jason Pizzo, explains what's happening, and what solutions are available to get this fixed including what mayoral candidate best fits the job to get it done.

In a socialist society, bureaucracy is the law of the land and usually followed by the phrase "un tramitecito mas y plantamos el arbolito", "one more piece of paperwork and we'll plant the tree". In this episode, we dive into the threat of socialism and how it's creeping in into our local government in the City of Miami with our host's real life story on the process endured to replace a tree. Take a listen and let us know your thoughts!

Here in Miami, we constantly hear about the tragedies that immigrants from socialist countries experienced. Those traumas have very much shaped our political environment and any encroaching of government in private lives is met with skepticism and labeled as socialism. But what about populism? What is it and does it pose a threat to our community and our nation? This is exactly the question we hope to answer in this episode!
