Today I take a look at Karl Popper's Paradox of Tolerance. Then I dig in to the psychology of tolerance and intolerance as it relates to intelligence. This was sort of fascinating for me, and kind of solidifies the ideas of Hoppe in my opinion. Let me know what you think of it.
Tuesday night livestreams have returned! This week I was joined by David Brady, the boy wonder of Road to Providence.
I wish I could say I was as sharp as David at his age...but I won't keep going on about that (since I say it enough in the episode). We talk economic, inflation, and how badly the government screws everything up in this episode. Enjoy!
Some young elites think if they don't start paying their "fair share" of taxes that the plebs will rise up and stomp them out.
The true elites are above that concern and the plebs don't care how much they pay in taxes...but it makes for good theater!
Check out the article here: 100+ ultra-rich people warn fellow elites in open letter: "It's taxes or pitchforks" | Salon.com

We started with the intent of talking about the ills of the 19th amendment, but ultimately we talked about a little bit of everything. Hopefully you get a little something out of this awesome conversation.
The article wasn't exactly what I was expecting, but if this is what "they" expect the future of work to be, I'll be checking right the f*** out! I think one of the most healthy and important things you can do for yourself is have clearly defined lines between work and life, and keep those separate.

I cover all 27 Constitutional Amendments in roughly 30 minutes.
So...what I'm saying is I did this poorly and will probably come back and dedicate more time to it later.
But for now, this is what you get!
Let's take a look at some interesting statistics on COVID cases right now vs this same time a year ago, and then we'll look at an LA Times article from 2009 that discusses the Swine Flu pandemic of 1976 that never was...

Supposed farmer and Nebraska Congressional candidate Dave Else can't understand why people are upset about higher corn prices on the Chicago Board of Trade and think's Biden's renewed push for corn based ethanol is a good thing.
Dave, lemme tell you why you're wrong.
And after I'm done you should head over to his Facebook page and tell him why he's wrong as well.
After the Tuesday night stream ended, we kept going! For like, 3 more hours. And we even had the wherewithal to record a couple hours of it!
I honestly have no idea what all we said, so it'll be a surprise for everyone! Enjoy!
