Do we need government to make regulations to protect us from ourselves?
In Episode #391 of 'Musings', Juan & I discuss: the book I'm reading called 'Merchants Of Doubt', the recent crackdown of crypto in Chokepoint 2.0, a list of pros and cons for why regulations should or shouldn't exist, how they differ from rules/laws/protocols/social contracts, why we are both in favour of a smaller government and why Erik Vorhees and Michael Malice should watch their back!
A solitary boostagram from Dave Jones but one much appreciated. Thanks to everyone supporting via streaming as well!
