Live Questions:
36:43 If drugs were legalized, could a businessman who created a legitimate empire selling cocaine have the same level of pride as someone like a Howard Rourke, knowing that he sells tools of evasion to self destructive individuals? Same question but for a peddler of religion
38:58 Is it fair to say most mixed economy jobs are miserable? People can't imagine the types of exciting, rewarding forms of work that will exist under laissez-faire? I suppose the tech field gives us a glimmer into that realm of dynamism?
41:30 If the Palestinians were given a state today it would be seen as a reward for October 7.
42:10 Are window tint laws legitimate? Is it a threat to officer safety if they can't see inside your window?
43:06 I assumed Alexei Navalny to be a hero. That is until an altruist agreed, on the basis ‘he sacrificed himself for the cause!’ Should granting heroism to Alexei Navalny hinge on his motives? (i.e. martyrdom vs selfish values)
47:15 Apparently rewarding terrorism is now a priority for the far left, which Biden feels the need to cater to. Will a lot of the Jewish and black vote go to Trump this time?
50:17 Yaron, you'll know your old when you shake your cane at requlators, yelling at them to get off your market lawn.
50:50 Why was all of South America colonized, while most of Africa was not?
55:16 would it be useful for the none-of-the-above'rs and undecided to write-in Nikki Haley?
56:13 Please expand on the Altruism of the USAF man.
56:52 Most people are mildly dishonest. Total honesty is a rare bird indeed.
57:00 Tabasco or Cholula hot sauce?
57:46 I really hope you're able to get on Piers Morgan's show when you're in London. Piers is constantly looking for moral equivalency where it doesn't exist.
58:00 If Chinese fully transition to EVs, they will need A LOT more coal plants. Is it ironic that the EV revolution will pump way more carbon into the atmosphere?
58:36 no offence, just your references are old
58:48 here's to you living to be 200!
59:01 Just roll with it! we're making more engagement !
59:54 I will send you an email after this show to reserve a place in your public speaking seminar after OCON in June.
1:00:03 Did you get a chance to take a look at Permanent Portfolio?
