12/24/2008 - Libertarianism Explained

Published: Dec. 25, 2008, 2 a.m.

Today being Christmas Eve, tonight's program was pre-recorded.  We focus on describing the principles of libertarianism so that those new to the philosophy can understand why we oppose taxation and most laws (Hint: It's not because we want to use drugs and hoard money).  We go through the process of self-ownership, self-interest, and how our principled and pragmatic views flow from those ideas.  And as usual, we veer off on to a few tangents just to keep it interesting.  We'll be back next week on New Year's Eve with a live program.
