The Welfare State is Tearing Sweden Apart Jul 15, 2019

Show notes

My guest today is the former president of the Swedish Chapter of the Mises Institute, Jon Nylander. We discuss the large welfare state in Sweden and the damage it's doing. There has been a large influx of immigrants into Swedish society in the last few years and rather than assisting various cultures with assimilation, the welfare state is pushing them further apart from each other. Markets bring people together and multiculturalism is much more harmonious but heavy government intervention and state sponsored welfare does the opposite.

Many ideas that were big in the Paleoconservatism movement are becoming popular once again. What do Paleoconservatives believe? When did this movement start? What is interesting is that libertarians and Paleoconservatives sure many of the same enemies. Why is that? If there is a go-to person to answer these questions, it's longtime Paleoconservative philosopher, thinker and author, Paul Gottfried. He was kinda enough to join me and we break it all down for you including populism, right wing vs left wing, the libertarian and paleo connection and of course fascism and socialism.

The Truth About Russia-gate May 27, 2019

Show notes

Despite several years of media lies, we now know that Putin and Trump didn't actually get together and collude to steal the 2016 election from Hillary Clinton. The Russia-gate mess showed us which media can't be trusted when we're searching for factual news. We also now know who can be trusted and my guest today is one of the good journalists. Why did the Russia/Trump investigation start? What did we actually learn from this investigation? Did Trump's views on foreign policy actually make him a target from the beginning? Will some dark figures operating in secrecy be found out now that a new investigation is being launched into the origins of Russia-gate? Daniel Lazare has been reporting on this from the beginning and he's here to break it all down for us.

Show notes

My guest today is former NYU professor Michael Rectenwald. He is an author of several books including, "Springtime For Snowflakes:Social Justice And It's Postmodern Parentage". We discuss his wild journey from an avowed Marxist to a free market libertarian and the subsequent fallout when he defected from the ideologically homogenous blob that made up his peer group within the university system. We get into post modernism, post structuralism, social justice warrior ideology and the other philosophies that poison modern leftism and the modern university campuses.

Libertarian Freedom vs Conservative and Progressive "Reform" May 13, 2019

Show notes

Do you know the big differences between libertarians, conservatives and progressives? Well my guest today is Jacob Hornberger from the Future Of Freedom Foundation. He believes that one major difference is the constant talk from conservatives and progressives to want to "reform" government programs and our wish that the program be completely abolished. We don't want to reform immoral boondoggles, we want to eliminate them. He contends that we are modern day abolitionists who don't want slavery tweaked and reformed, but rather gone altogether. We go down a list of political programs like social security, medicare, the war on drugs, the military industrial complex and Jacob explains where we as libertarians stand and where our conservative and progressive opponents stand. We then get into the rumor of Jacob exploring a libertarian party ticket presidential run.
