Adam on the Drop the Mask podcast
Democracy, voting, the Libertarian Party, marginal analysis, collective action, and why news is valuable, even if it's "fake". All this and more!
Hey folks. Happy “election” day!
To help you enjoy this most special of special days in our preposterous democracy, I thought I’d share a great conversation I just had with Jason of the Drop the Mask podcast.
We talk about a whole range of interesting things, mostly having to do with voting and democracy and how we should think about these things without making ourselves crazy.
Enjoy!
Naturally,
Adam
Moderates are often the corporate yes-men and yes-women of politics. I like Joseph Sobran's analysis:
"If you want government to intervene domestically, you’re a liberal.
If you want government to intervene overseas, you’re a conservative.
If you want government to intervene everywhere, you’re a moderate.
If you don’t want government to intervene anywhere, you’re an extremist."
Thanks for sharing, Adam! It was great to have you on
