This week we cover Biden’s attack on shrinkflation, barriers to workplace flexibility, and a motherlode of domestic lithium. Our interview this week is with Patrick Gleason, Vice President of State Affairs at Americans for Tax Reform. We talk about reducing barriers to work, changes in state tax law, reforming business regulations, and what economically (and demographically) successful states can teach to the ones that are falling behind. Free the Economy is produced and hosted by Richard Morrison and edited and co-produced by Ryan Kracinski. 

Keep up with the show by following us on Twitter at @freethe_economy and read our episodes summaries with links to the stories we cover at cei.org/blog.

On this solo run, Zach talks about his fondness for the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul, and Batman's fifth Robin: Damian Wayne.

Zach discusses the story that turned him into a fan: from the pages of Batman and Robin, the story, "Born to Kill," by Peter J. Tomasi and Patrick Gleason, from DC Comics.
