    17:25 “The interventionists do not approach the study of economic matters with scientific disinterestedness, most of them are driven by an envious resentment for those who’s incomes are larger than their own. For them, the main thing is not to improve the conditions of the masses, but to harm the entrepreneurs & capitalists - even if this policy victimizes the immense majority of the people.”

      The most important text anyone can read on the machinations going on right now that Josh didn't mention (I'm not sure if he even knows about it), is Tragedy and Hope by Princeton history professor Carol Quigley. It was written in the 60's and outlined exactly how the trans-national Oligarch socialists had consolidated their power up to that point, and how they were going to consolidate their power globally in the future. It describes what we are witnessing today EXACTLY. Since it's 1300 pages I will link to the excellent "cliff notes" if you will: odysee.com/@joe-plummer:b/Tragedy-and-Hope-101:9
      Also, if you want the full picture from one of the best investigative journalists of the past 20 years, I highly recommend www.TheCorbettReport.com. He has connected all of the dots to a terrifying degree. It's much, MUCH more serious than Biden simply winning the election, though he is the vanguard of their plans here in the US.

      Contrary to what you’d believe NATO does not exist to deter Russia, but rather to prevent inter European wars. For example: Belgium’s nato guarantee doesn’t exist because of Russia - it exists because of Germany, and France.
      Russia falsely claims Ukraine is an artificial state yet internationally recognized their borders on multiple occasions. The entirety of Russian history is inexorably linked to the creation of Kyiv by Swedish Rus-folk.

      The free market ideal under classical liberalism and libertarianism to the extent these ideologies have been used, are the ”extreme version of capitalism” and fascism is not.
      The socialists’ prime argument is that ”capitalism will lead to fascism or corporativism”, rather than to equate these ideologies. The fascists’ argument is comparatively simular, namely that capitalism paves the way for socialism by housing the same materialist principles as well as holding simular utilitarian ambitions.
      Since seperation of powers is likely the most central thesis in the liberal ideology and Socialism and Fascism equally disregard this as fiction, I think if nothing else, we can safely assert that Socialistic and Fascistic views on power are more closely related than either are to Enlightenment liberalism

    "The only means to acquire power and to preserve in a market economy not altered by a government-made privileges and restrictions is to serve the customers in the 'best' and cheapest* way."
    Pff, yeah, I guess it's just harder to direct differently all those hundreds of millions of people to value things and obtain them by minimizing the amount of objective and emotional dissatisfaction & disenfranchisement in such a succinct way, right ?
    There's still some enforcement and restriction left; and requirements (money) to obtain smth can still be lowered, but it's literally that our individual actions would be tied to the requirements and requirements and hardships for everyone else if we get it more easily; everything is freaking tied in, and that' supposed to be "optimal", because we can only think of the government (when it's theoretically/ideally not corrupted nor has a secret agenda) as doing the same action of getting for free in our place, right ?
    It's the government. And it's 2021. Can't it try to affect the pricing of the companies themselves ? We know how investments can be risky and yet allows for increased purchasing power in the consumer base ever so slightly by giving away money with trust without having immediately/automatically exchanged with smth of equal "value" in the first place, can't the government due these kinds of "investments" of a different nature than getting translating or defaulting those prices to other people ? If it transcends the market ?
    I'm not convinced on that idea yet, but it sounds like we can do more and have not enough yet, if even just that general idea just above, not even in theory
    And sure, you could say that Socialist Statism differs from all other forms of authoritarianism in that it intentionally works "for" the people, but not necessarily "by" it, and more directly by taking the responsibility for obtaining needed/demanded goods away from their ability to "earn" it in the however ultimately subjective and changing ways that employees can value whatever activity (i.e. "labour" that you can offer them); which means that your value fluctuates with time, *inherently* , because of others' unchecked changes, and thus can f*** over you over without you even knowing it nor caring; it's not like either the organic/artificial price setters know much about the macroeconomic situation and the status of their consumer base before deciding how to price their objects or to decide what to do in the current quarter and the upcoming ones, and it's not like their "rational actors", same with teh consumers, they might not know as much as they should in order to complete what they need to do in the "democracy" of the marketplace, or to keep the companies sharp, with them being trapped and harmed by their own hubris or complacency...)

      @@DKMperor learn more about Russian revolution 1917. Certainly the most critical event and time in the world history. Very interesting, very shocking, very educational how to prevent that monster from starting. America is doomed now.

    This is the silliest historical revisionism, I can't take this ideologue seriously. Sloppy scholarship, junk premises, hasty inferences, and caricatures of every position that isn't his philosophically puerile individualism.

      double negation- His economic theories have already been born out through empirical data and embraced as economic truths, although ignored (never refuted) by Keynesians and Progressives. Instead of offering shrill drive-by commentary, feel free to offer a well-reasoned counter argument. Of course to do that, you will actually have to learn (and be able to understand) what Mises has written. Until then, kindly shut the f**k up and go troll somewhere else.
