Eps 379 - Henry Kissinger Has Died at the Age of 100
Description
Henry Kissinger was undoubtedly the most influential person in foreign policy over the last 6 decades or so. From my perspective, his greatest contribution was that of normalizing trade relations with China. This single act has led to a tremendous increase in the standard of living of the people of America, while simultaneously improving the lives of the Chinese people. But Henry Kissinger as also the single most important figure in the rise of the American Empire which has been mostly bad for the World. Like all men in power, Kissinger lost sight of what is most important to human beings, always and everywhere, and that's liberty. His work has led to curtail American Liberty, albiet unintentional, and grow America's empire around the world which has been very bad for human beings living outside of America.
