Yes - It's rare but we actually have some good news today. Congress has just passed a bill that will allow terminally ill people with no alternative to try new drugs not yet approved by the FDA.

This comes down to property rights. You own your body and you ought to be able to do whatever you want with it. Shockingly there are Democrats in Washington who believe this is a bad thing because it might give people false hope.

Really? Who cares! They're dying anyway. Let them have any amount of hope they can. Maybe the placebo effect will take over and they'll be healed by their own mind. :-)

Regardless, to deny someone access to drugs because you want to protect them from themselves is both immoral and reprehensible.

We're also going to discuss the benefits of a flat tax today as a way of keeping government accountable. I think maybe I can hit you with an angle you hadn't considered.

Don't forget to like and share the show!!
