Eps 418 - Bernie Sanders and Jordan Petersen Disagree
Description
Bernie Sanders is a true populist and very skilled at tapping into the discontent that exists in our culture at large. The problem with Bernie is, that more government is always his solution. He simply cannot see that government is the problem. Murray Rothbard famously said, "The government breaks your leg and then offers you a crutch." Bernie just never learned the basic principal of life..."There are no good decisions or bad decisions, there are only tradeoffs". Jordan Petersen, on the other hand, is one of the most principled commentators in the culture today. He has thought deeply about almost everything. The long and short of this episode is that these two guys just disagree!
