Peter talks about how democracy has been so great over the last 50 years but he doesn't seem to comprehend its all fake. All Western governments are bankrupt. I could make life great for everyone if I had endless resources

Thanks for this engaging show! Peter I think you're making several fundamental mistakes in your reasoning. 1. You're assuming that no government means no governance/law. Actually look into the history of Somalia. You'll see that the chaos in that region is the US Empire's fault. 2. The ONLY reason why there's reduced poverty in the West is because of capitalism's success DESPITE the meddling of the state. Cont. in another boost...

3. You can't make a fundamentally immoral system more moral. The incentives will always cause the state to expand and become more coercive. You're basically saying in order to protect property rights, you must violate property rights. 4. You're assuming no one would help the poor in a stateless society. People will and have always done this. You can't help the poor by stealing from others. Even if you could, it's immoral to do so.
