Libertarian Institute contributor Tom Eddlem gives some of Venezuela’s recent history, focusing on the elections of Chavez and Maduro, and most recently Juan Guaido’s self-proclamation as the country’s legitimate leader. Scott and Eddlem debate the validity of the United States weighing in on Venezuelan politics in the first place, but agree that the motivations for military intervention are highly suspect. Discussed on the show: “1/25/19 Daniel McAdams on US Support for Regime Change in Venezuela” (The Libertarian Institute) “2/1/19 Greg [Read More]

There are many legitimate reasons why investors stay out of South America. The region has a well-earned reputation for political instability, violence, and hostility to foreign business.

On January 25th, the longest government shutdown ever at 34 days came to a temporary halt. The government has been funded through February 15th where we might just see yet, another government shutdown.

Well, the Super Bowl was a huge letdown and most of the commercials weren't worth talking about either. But there were a couple of moments worth mentioning. The biggest one for me was the Washington Post commercial that ends with the tagline "Democracy dies in darkness." From an influence perspective, this ad was brilliant. I want to break it down for you and talk a little about how easy it is to be influenced when you don't understand what's happening [Read More]

Jason Hickel discusses the history of British colonial rule in India and his new piece, “How Britain stole $45 trillion from India.” He explains the British government’s clever scheme: forcibly extract tax revenue from the people, use the money to buy goods from other parts of India, then export the goods back to England where they can be sold for a British profit. Thanks to English economic policy, about 60 million Indians died from famine—a tragedy to rival the Holocaust [Read More]

Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris got some pushback from some of her party leadership when she floated the proposal of eliminating the private health insurance market entirely in a CNN town hall this week.

Sheldon Richman talks about the latest with the migrant caravan and President Trump’s reaction to it. He points out how odd it is for Trump supporters to justify all the bad things he does by saying “Obama did it too”. Wouldn’t that mean they should either love Obama or hate Trump?
