A Pragmatic Discourse on Libertarian Principles and the Recurring Cycles That Fuel Them

In this podcast, I sit down for a casual discussion about the principles and values of Libertarianism, what it means to be a Libertarian, how it differs from Anarchy, and how the recurring cycles of politics, sociology and human nature fuel and suppress them in various ways.

We go into how the failures of Republican and Democratic policies provoke Libertarian ideals to flourish. We discuss how taxation is theft, the allegory of The Matrix, Ayn Rand, Ron Paul and his speeches during the End the Fed and Tea Party movements, The Fourth Turning, the Tytler Cycle, and the Hegelian Dialectic.

We also dive into Marine Corps General Smedley Butler's peaceful Bonus Army, and how the government dealt with honorable military veterans who just wanted the payment they were promised for their service.

Lastly, we address the events and policies which lead up to the events of September 11, 2001, and how the NeoCon Project for the New American Century (PNAC) think tank wrote a position paper one year prior entitled 'Rebuilding America's Defenses' which called for a "catastrophic and catalyzing event—like a new Pearl Harbor," in order to generate public support for a war with Israel's enemies.
