      Join us this week for a special edition of our show from Washington, D.C. in front of a spirited crowd of 1,000 college students at the annual Students for Liberty Conference.

      David Boaz from the Cato Institute and Nick Gillespie from Reason TV will stop by to take the student's questions and discuss how the future for freedom is bright.

      These young liberty lovers will also grill our guest panel, which includes the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton . We will debate how the U.S. should react to the possibility of a nuclear Iran and other national security issues.

      Ken Klukowski from the Family Resource Council will take the stage to defend social conservative stances against abortion and same-sex marriage.

      Finally, comedian Tim Hawkins shines some light on what government can do for us with a satirical song.

      Tune in tonight at our new time, 9pm, on the Fox Business Network.

    This Week's Show -- May 24, 2012

     

    People complain about income inequality and poverty.

     

    But what does poverty mean in America?

     

    The truth is, most poor people have cars, air conditioning, modern electronics-things even kings didn't have decades ago.

     

    Stossel went to a food kitchen in Harlem, and asked people standing in line if they had TVs and cell phones. One man said "of course".

     

    On this week's show, Stossel argues that wealth disparity isn't bad, because life is better when people are free. The rich get richer, and the poor get... richer.

     

    In fact, the poorest fifth of Americans are now 20% richer than they were when Stossel was in college (and yes, that's adjusted for inflation).

     

    Finally, Stossel shows how our exploding debt and ever growing entitlements rip off future generations, and force them to pay for benefits for boomers like John. To prove his point, Stossel "steals" toys from some toddlers
