Trump's Healthcare Plan, Prohibition's Legacy & Gold Soars - January 16, 2026

In this hard-hitting episode of Liberty RoundTable, Sam Bushman and Dr. Scott Bradley break down the critical issues facing America today. 107 Years of Prohibition's Failure: On the anniversary of the 18th Amendment's ratification, Sam and Dr. Bradley examine how Prohibition turned ordinary Americans into criminals, fueled organized crime, and taught us a lasting lesson about government overreach. They draw parallels to today's war on drugs and cannabis policy, questioning why the federal government continues to criminalize peaceful conduct. Trump's "Great Healthcare Plan" Exposed: The hosts provide an in-depth analysis of President Trump's newly announced healthcare proposal, revealing why it's "socialism repackaged." They explain how the plan actually expands Obamacare rather than dismantling it, forces Americans into government-controlled HSA accounts, and maintains federal control over your healthcare choices. Sam shares his expertise on health shares, direct primary care, and true free-market alternatives that don't require government intervention. Gold & Silver Prices Soaring: With gold hitting $4,620 and silver at $92 per ounce, Dr. Bradley explains the historical context of precious metals, the dangers of fiat currency, and why Americans should be concerned about the coming economic upheaval. Learn about FDR's 1933 gold confiscation and what it means for today. Plus: Discussion on psychotropic drugs vs. cannabis, the constitutional limits on federal power, and why compassion and compulsion are incompatible.
