Oral Roberts Meets Dr. Welby

12/20/09

This Sunday, Bob will be joined by Edward Hudgins, Director of Advocacy at the Atlas Society to discuss the latest chapter in the Obamacare travesty.  The health care proposal in congress is now being geared up to include coverage of faith based healing and other outrageous lobbyist driven ideas.  Instead of being sent to a doctor when you’re sick, you may be turned over to a spiritual hotline to help you with your aches and pains.  Oy vey.

Government Does Some Things Right? Maybe.

12/13/09

This Sunday, Bob will interview celebrated author William Eggers about newest book “If We Can Put A Man on The Moon: Getting Big Things Done in Government.” Eggers is policy analyst who believes our great nation should be able to accomplish anything after our feat of sending a man to the moon.   Eggers breaks down the infrastructure of big government and explains why some initiatives have failed, some succeeded and how working together could be the answer to so many problems.

Government vs. Private Industry

12/6/09

Bob will explore licensing laws that regulate yoga studios in the state of Virginia. The government is hurting these businesses by collecting fees from proprietors who are training new instructors and it goes so far as to put them in jail if they don’t comply with the law. Rob Frommer, chief litigator from the Institute for Justice, will explain how this not only violates the constitution but goes against freedom of speech. 

Organ Donations

11/22/09

This Sunday, Bob will argue that buying and selling of body parts should be legal. The current system is flawed, favoring certain people who are fortunate and able to push themselves to the front of the waiting list. Everybody could benefit from a system that would also save more lives and compensate people for the commodities they have to sell. He will be joined by Professor Nancy Shepher-Hughes from UC Berkeley who will argue that because the practice is gruesome in third world countries, it should be outlawed in the US. Leaving the question to be answered: Why can’t we do it better here?

Ethics & Economic Freedom vs. Healthcare

11/15/09

This Sunday, Bob’s guest will be MD and attorney Bruce Fagel.  Together they’ll review the obscene income transfers inherent in pending health care reform legislation, and see how it stands up against core American principles.  Is it reform (”amendment of what is defective” according to Webster’s) of health care or its destruction?  Learn why Obamacare is a Trojan Horse, loaded with social engineering and massive income transfers.  You won’t get this anywhere else.

Legalize Insider Trading

Legalize Insider Trading – Bob is joined by Don Boudreaux, an economics professor at George Mason University.  They discuss why they believe insider trading should be legalized. If investing were based on real numbers rather than pure speculation the system would work more efficiently.  Let’s even the playing field and allow everyone to have access to the same information.

Truth in Advertising

10/18/09

As the FTC cracks down on online ads; Bob wonders why more regulations need to be put in place to protect consumers who are perfectly capable of making decisions about purchases that are right for them. Let’s end expensive and unnecessary government oversight and wipe out nannies once and for all. The Cato Institute’s scholar Jim Harper joins Bob to discuss this topic.

Do the Unborn Have Rights?

10/11/09

With six Supreme Court Justices attending Catholic Mass and being sermonized about abortion a week ago, it’s time to visit this issue and all its complex baggage – separation of church and state, Constitutional protection (or not?) of the right to an abortion, criminalization of abortion, rights of the unborn vs. rights of the mother (and father).  It is fascinating and loaded subject.

Smaller Government Rules

10/04/09

This Sunday, Bob will discuss the benefits of small government.  He will question the need for state and federal authorities to be involved in minor issues such as allowing dogs in restaurants, liquor laws, speed limits, driving while texting, etc.  Let’s let our local officials decide what’s best for our communities.

Questionable Funding of the Arts

09/27/09

This Sunday (9/27), Bob will cover the issue of the White House urging artists to do art to support the Administration and the broader issue of closing down the National Endowment for the Arts and the government funding of the arts.
