Shownotes

When we “build democracy” across the world, we make the mistake of ignoring the American start
“Europe was built by history, America was built by philosophy.”
Enlightenment Philosophy wasn’t a set list of beliefs, but rather an openness to the many ideas and exploration to discuss them
First order effects, you turn on the switch and the light turns on. While yes, the switch caused the light, your actions to turn on the light was the first effect.
We have a country that protects liberty, but liberty and freedom is an after effect of having an independent state
