  <description>Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with one of America's top economists ⏤ former US Congressman Dave Brat, vice-president for business engagement at Liberty University. 
America's Roundtable conversation with Congressman Dave Brat covers the following key topics: 
Wealth creation | The growing disparity between America's top 1% and the vanishing middle-class. The persistent inflationary prices adversely impacting America's families. 
Crisis on America's southern border. | The death of Laken Riley, a 22-year-old nursing student at the University of Georgia and the arrest of Jose Antonio Ibarra, a 26-year-old Venezuelan citizen who immigration officials said entered the U.S. illegally.
The policy of peace through strength versus appeasement. The Biden administration's foreign policy placed under the spotlight. 
Serious concerns are raised about President Biden's Executive Order (EO) which unfairly targets Israeli Jews in Judea and Samaria ⏤ the Biblical heartland of Israel, also known as the West Bank. Biden's EO clearly undermines Israel as a strong rule of law nation. Is this EO a departure of US support for the Jewish state? 
Is the Abraham Accords ⏤ the promise of peace and prosperity in the Middle East, and beyond?

Fox Business | Why are groceries still so expensive?
Quote from Megan Henney, Fox Business : "While inflation has fallen considerably from a peak of 9.1% notched during June 2022, it remains above the Federal Reserve's 2% goal. And when compared with January 2021, shortly before the inflation crisis began, prices are up a stunning 17.6%. The typical U.S. household needed to pay $211 more a month in December to purchase the same goods and services it did one year ago because of still-high inflation, according to new calculations from Moody's Analytics. Americans are paying on average $1,020 more each month compared with the same time two years ago."

  <description>Join America's Roundtable (https://americasrt.com/) Radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with former U.S. Congressman Dave Brat (https://gettr.com/user/brateconomics), economist, dean of the School of Business, Liberty University, and executive advisory board member, International Leaders Summit.
This weekend's conversation will focus on the vital issues impacting America's citizen-stakeholders and the world:
— The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and The Signature Bank and its cost to America's taxpayers.
— Spotlight on the Federal Reserve Bank and its adverse impact on the free market economy.
— The future of regional banks in America.
— Addressing the dangers of President Biden's ESG rules—"environmental, social and governance" placing retirement savings at risk.
"Put simply, retirement savings will be used as leverage to force companies to reduce their carbon emissions and establish racial and gender quotas and other social justice fads completely unrelated to securing a high return on workers' lifetime savings....Terrence Keeley, a former executive at BlackRock, blew the whistle on this scam in the Wall Street Journal by noting that since 2017, when the ESG fad took hold, these funds have had an annual rate of return of 6.3% – versus 8.9% for the stock market as a whole. Investors lost 2.6% per year on their retirement funds. There goes the down payment on that retirement home in Arizona or Florida." — Stephen Moore (https://www.foxbusiness.com/markets/bidens-esg-investment-rules-threaten-your-retirement-savings)
— The China Threat.
Biography | Dr. David Brat
Before coming to Liberty, Dr. Brat served in the United States Congress for Virginia’s 7th District. He served on the Budget, Education and Small Business Committees, and Chaired the subcommittee on Economic Growth, Tax and Capital Access.

He worked with the Senate side of the Virginia General Assembly for seven years. He also served as the president of the Virginia Association of Economists and was a member of the Virginia Board of Accountancy.

The discussion will focus on the following key topics:
 — The state of America's economy and an update on the real economic issues facing Americans and the next generation | The Hill: "The nation’s annual budget deficits are projected to average $2 trillion over roughly the next decade, according to figures released by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) on Wednesday."
 —  At this rate, the U.S. national debt at over $31 trillion in 2022 will grow to $51 trillion in just 10 years.
  —  Public education failing smart students.
 — The two forthcoming U.S. Supreme Court cases focusing on Section 230 and the future of tech and social media companies.
  — The European Union will now apply stricter rules known as the — "Digital Services Act." Reuters: "The new rules known as the Digital Services Act (DSA) label companies with more than 45 million users as very large online platforms and subject to obligations such as risk management and external and independent auditing."
   — Red states—those leaning Republican—are seeing more people moving in when comparing to Democratic-leaning blue states. Post-pandemic, some 14% of Americans have now moved from blue to red states governed by Republicans.
WSJ Report: "Forty-six million people moved to a different ZIP Code in the year through February 2022, the most in any 12-month period in records going back to 2010, according to a Moody’s analysis of Equifax Inc. consumer-credit reports. The states that gained the most, led by Florida, Texas and North Carolina, are almost all red, as defined by the Cook Political Report based on how states voted in the past two presidential elections. The states that lost the most residents are almost all blue, led by California, New York and Illinois."

  <description>Join America's Roundtable co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy for an in-depth conversation with former U.S. Congressman David Brat, the brilliant economist, dean of the Business School at Liberty University, and executive advisory board member of International Leaders Summit — focusing on America's economy and the future of public policy in the United States. The conversation will also highlight a new Wall Street Journal-NORC Poll which shows that Americans are deeply pessimistic about the U.S. economy and view the nation as sharply divided over its most important values.
According to The Wall Street Journal (https://www.wsj.com/articles/inflation-political-division-put-u-s-in-a-pessimistic-mood-poll-finds-11654507800), "Some 83% of respondents described the state of the economy as poor or not so good. More than one-third, or 35%, said they aren’t satisfied at all with their financial situation. That was the highest level of dissatisfaction since NORC began asking the question every few years starting in 1972 as part of the General Social Survey."
The discussion will also bring to the forefront the Biden administration's efforts to loosen up federal patent rules, thus opening the door for high-tech companies backed by the Chinese government to raid American inventions in the highly coveted 5G space.
According to The Washington Examiner, "...three GOP senators are also warning that in watering down intellectual property protections, the administration could be jeopardizing national security at a time when China and other potential foes are outspending the United States on 21st-century technology by a mile.”
This weekend's program will also review the concerns being raised by American citizens and legislators about the Biden Administration's foreign policy follies and the US entering a quagmire in Europe with $40 billion of taxpayer funds designated for Ukraine, while wealthy European nations still remain hesitant about paying their fair share for defense on the continent.

  <description>On America's Roundtable, former US Congressman Dr. David Brat, dean, School of Business, Liberty University and executive advisory board member, International Leaders Summit, joins a conversation focusing on the American economy looking at relevant data and the dynamics at play during the Covid-19 season. The discussion also covers America's law and order, the monuments destroyed, healthcare reform and efforts to address cronyism in healthcare sector (one-sixth of the U.S. economy).  Dr. David Brat, Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy also bring to the forefront the recent victory - the Trump Administration's Price-Transparency Rule which upholds hospital price transparency. According to The Wall Street Journal, "The American Hospital Association lost its legal bid to stop the Trump administration from requiring hospitals to disclose secret rates they negotiate with insurance companies, a victory for one of President Trump’s central health-policy initiatives."
The radio segment also covers the significance of strengthening the rule of law, upholding the U.S. Constitution, Chinese Communist Party's agenda including the recent deadly China-India border clash killing 20 Indian soldiers, and the West's emerging "new cold war" with China.
