Description
On this week's Ep, I've got a very special Guest.
Scott Horton, one of the world's most vocal and hard working Libertarians and anti-war authors.
He joined me to speak about why and how foreign policy is the most important aspect of a presidency or nation state’s impact.
How a monopoly on violence gives the state the power of an empire.
Why wars so enticing for a state.
Is modern warfare different to medieval & ancient warfare? Why?
How did we get here? What went wrong along the way?
The constant state of emergency
Does he think what’s happened in the last 14mths (globalist agenda) is in some ways retribution for America’s meddling in everyone’s shit?
If we were more localised, would these kinds of wars or conflicts be as much of a reality?
When is War necessary?
One of the resources that Scott Mentioned was a series of works by Garet Garrett:
- The revolution that was
- Ex America
- Rise of Empire
