Live Questions:
1:13:57 I watched Other People's Money last year as recommended. I found it to be one of the top movies I have seen about Mergers & Acquisitions and overall capitalism being a great thing. I have not found anything in terms of tv shows. Any new recommendations for tv/movies?
1:19:36 Note: In a laissez faire system, there would be criminal negligence. If someone really makes a fraudulent product that harms people, criminal law may be applicable. People out there seem to think capitalism means business could get away with murder.
1:21:54 Masculinity is deteriorating because of altruism and emotional repression. Given that repression is a problem, why does society always push men to feel emotions of weakness to cry instead of those of strength like enthusiasm?
1:25:40 What do you think of military boot camps grinding down recruits' self estemm and imposing a duty mindset on them? Do those means justify the end of preparing young people for battle?
1:29:43 If you have read Stranger in a Strange Land, could you give it a quick 20$ length review? I enjoyed it and it had me entertaining the idea of someone creating a Religion based on non-predatory Egoism haha. If not, no worries
1:33:21 A Polish news clip shows women training on their new Abrams tanks as drivers. As an ex tank guy, do you think that any crew position other than loader requires a male body frame?
1:37:16 Are those who want us to emulate China’s system of government ignorant or evasive at the prohibition against criticizing the government there and what happens to those who do?
1:38:02 Public filth, disorder and crime have exponentially increased in almost every major city in America. Is this due to the last 4 years of the left becoming more unhinged?
1:39:45 can you comment on the idea of "ignorance is bliss"? objectivist promote knowledge, and not evading so of course ignorance is the opposite. if I'm content why get cought in a rat race for more?
1:41:50 Will Chris Christie be a Kamikaze pilot and come after Trump on the debate stage? I can't wait to see Christie really go after him. Will it be enough to stop him?
1:43:37 Did you get a chance to see Netanyahu's interview with Lex Fridman? He said he introduced heavy free market reforms in Israel and explicitly said socialism is what’s holding Israel back.
1:46:15 Has Objectivism had an impact on our courts?
1:47:28 After many concentration camps were liberated, the US army would often order the German civilian population in the nearby towns to help clean up the bodies. Is this a rights violation?
1:48:26 Does the Objectivist movement need more charisma? We can't inspire people with just boring nerds.
1:49:10 In the future without the FDA, will pills be invented that allow you to eat whatever you want without getting fat?
1:49:33 Search 'CBS Research Energy from Space to Earth'
1:50:00 Anti mosquito support
1:50:02 Anti-mosquito support
1:50:23 Who in their right mind would value mosquitoes? 🧐 Great show!
1:50:42 I'm not against wiping out mosquitoes but some care is needed when targeting classes of pests: see Mao's Four pests Campaign causing famine. Secondary and tertiary effects are sometimes unseen.
1:51:34 Fantastic show today! I love that we explore and think of the endless possibilities of capitalism. Thank you :)
1:52:02 Look at battle of Gallipoli, or the movie. How can men be sent into battle who will be slaughtered? What about when your commanding officer is killed?
1:54:28 Rand would allegedly prick her finger to bleed sometimes to inspire her writing. I don’t think she’d have objected to suffering being part of achieving, but she would have rejected it as the essential nature of achievement.
1:56:54 Your thoughts on aftershaves and perfumes and how they convey masculinity or femininity?
