Steve Forbes Celebrates the Milestone of the Dow Reaching 50,000 | 02-07-26

Steve Moore interviews economist and former presidential candidate Steve Forbes to celebrate the milestone of the Dow reaching 50,000 and to advocate for a return to supply-side economic policies. The conversation traces the roots of current prosperity back to the Reagan Revolution, specifically highlighting how slashing high tax rates and conquering inflation served as the initial “rocket ship” for American wealth creation. Forbes argues for a modern legislative agenda that includes further corporate and capital gains tax cuts, aggressive deregulation to aid manufacturers, and the appointment of Federal Reserve leaders who prioritize a stable dollar. A central theme of the discussion is the transformative potential of voluntary Social Security personal accounts, which the speakers believe would empower young workers to build private wealth and become a nation of shareholders.  Learn more about your ad choices.
