If you don’t know what Freedom Watch is then please check out http://freedomwatchonfox.com/. It’s an online only show hosted by the Judge catering to freedom-loving people everywhere.

Check out the excellent discussions from the show today below.

As for the content of the program, Stossel states:

In my new job, I want to dig into the meaning of the words “liberty” and “limited government”.  ABC enabled me to do some of that, but Fox offers me more airtime and a new challenge.

I’m still considering what I will do with my own show, one hour each week.   Economics certainly.  Exercises in understanding libertarianism.  My “take” on the issues of the day.   Kind of like this blog.  In fact, maybe we’ll call it, Stossel’s Take?

In fact he asks for your ideas if you care to submit them.  I look forward to his program, since it appears he won’t be hampered as much by the whims of the ABC editors and producers.  At least, his new program will be less likely to be pushed out by Michael Jackson news.

If you missed it the chat transcript is available for your reading pleasure.

Stossel is quick-witted and brutally honest. He’s a refreshing libertarian voice in the media wilderness.

Also, check out his new frequently updated blog for more raw Stossel.

Especially interesting was the segment with the exclusive audio of a Campaign For Liberty manager getting detained and harassed at the St. Louis airport seemingly because he had too much cash on him. You can watch that segment isolated here. It seems these guys didn’t get the word that the MIAC document was retracted. Yet more evidence that we live in the land of the unfree.

Ron Paul comes on during the final segment and discussed the G20 meetings and other topics.

Watch the entire show in the playlist below or watch it directly on youtube here.

These ideas should be commonplace, but over the years they’ve been usurped by statism–the belief that the government is the all-seeing, all-knowing, all-do-good god. But the devil is in the details and Stossel once again reveals the devil in statism

The show is in six parts.

1. Economic crisis?
2. Should roads be private?
3. Should drugs be legal?
4. Should the federal government (our tax dollars) pay for preschool for every child?
5. Is combating illegal immigration doomed to fail?
6. Is America still the land of opportunity?

Watch all six in the playlist embedded below. (Thanks go to youtube user wisted for uploading the videos)

They discussed Obama’s plan for education, the endless bailouts, and more. John Stossel joined the show during the final minutes via telephone and discussed his upcoming special on 20/20 Friday night at 10pm EST called “Bailouts, Big Spending, and Bull.”

Ron Paul was on for the first 15 minutes or so. John Tate joined during the last half hour. Please spread the playlist below around the net. And be sure to join the Facebook “Fans of Freedom Watch” group if you haven’t already.

Watch what many are calling the liberty power hour below. All 6 parts should play in succession via the playlist here.

The Judge also brings back Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, Peter Schiff, and Tracy Byrnes (from Fox Business Channel). Also joining the crew will be Campaign For Liberty President John Tate.

As The Judge says at the end of the show, “Stay free.”

Obama said: “Painful crisis also provides us with an opportunity to transform our economy to improve the lives of ordinary people.”

One would have to know and understand the progressive politics (and adherence to socialistic policies and Keynesian economics) to be able to read between the lines.  But Emanuel is more straightforward, saying “You never want a serious crisis to go to waste.”

Wow.  Politicians don’t even bother to hide their agendas any more.

This is the subject of John Stossel’s most recent commentary.

So they will “transform our economy.” Obama’s nearly trillion-dollar plan will not merely repair bridges, fill potholes and fix up schools; it will also impose a utopian vision based on the belief that an economy is a thing to be planned from above. But this is an arrogant conceit. No one can possibly know enough to redesign something as complex as “an economy,” which really is people engaging in exchanges to achieve their goals. Planning it means planning them.

Obama and Emanuel want us to believe that their blueprint for reform will bring recovery from the recession. Yet we have recovered from past recessions without undertaking a radical social and economic transformation.

In fact, reform would impede recovery.
