Moe begins today's show with his 'Moe-ment of Truth," where he talks about the hypocrisy of Congressional Republicans when it comes to disaster relief funding and President Biden's recently passed infrastructure law.

For the remainder of the show, Moe is joined by Dr. Robert Shapiro, Chairman of Sonecon, an economic advisory firm and a Senior Fellow of the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University.

They discuss:

1. Economics 101 when it comes to supply and demand, as well as inflation

2. Dr. Shapiro's newest piece for 'Washington Monthly.' It's titled, "It’s a Biden Boom—and No One Has Noticed Yet"

3. Socialism versus free market

4. President Biden and his 'Build Back Better' plan

Dr. Shapiro is an internationally-known economist who has advised, among others, President Bill Clinton, Vice President Al Gore, Jr., British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, and then U.S. Senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. He was Under Secretary of Commerce for Economic Affairs in the Clinton Administration.

His website is Sonecon.com and his Twitter handle is @RobShapiro.
