Live Questions:
48:17 Many conservatives are blaming the rise in crime on bail reform. But I think there is a just case for removing cash bail. It is legitimate for a judge to keep you on pre-trial detention if you're a flight risk or threat to the community, not bc you happen to be poor.
52:11 Hello Yaron, I have not been able to attend shows lately. Your show on Mr. Beast was exceptional. Your lectures in Europe were some of the best yet!! Thanks for inspiring us with your message. Don’t move to France and retire! Keep fighting.
52:50 Objectivists often praise the American sense of life, but that sense of life is still 100x weaker than the Objectivist sense of life. Perhaps the American sense is strong enough to keep the gulags away, but not strong enough to bring the flying cars.
55:35 Under free society, are the prisoners entitled to healthcare at taxpayers expense? Thank you
57:33 Why do men form gangs? Is there something positive in this tendency if directed productively? Most powerful companies are also male dominated, is there a connection? (Morality aside). Thank you.
1:09:36 I think women make less money and advance less in business because of low self-esteem in a professional context. What do you thinkk?
1:10:46 Is duty the group version of individualistic discipline?
1:12:13 What’s your impression of the relatively dramatic increase in crime in Sweden over the last few decades? To what extent do you attribute it to being related to the character of Sweden’s immigration and seemingly failed attempt to integrate?
1:17:08 “Hope is a distraction. Maybe we SHOULD abandon it.” —Avatar: The Last Airbender
1:17:28 Oh now you’re dissing anarchy, time for the libertarians to unsubscribe! Good riddance I say…
1:18:23 1) If Trump actually gets arrested, will we see January 6th on steroids? This is great for DeSantis. I don't think you can run for president if you have pending criminal charges.
1:18:49 2) Although this is completely corrupt of the Manhattan DA to bump this up to a felony when he's been bumping most other crimes to misdemeanors.
1:22:19 Kevin O'Leary, the bald capitalist on Shark Tank, was saying the smaller regional banks should fail and die, and not be zombie banks. Is he right?
1:26:11 That was from a completely different TV show, not the Avatar movie.
