Episode 113
Tragedy Of The Political Commons
In the world of economics the principle of tragedy of the common is often used to describe the overuse and misuse of natural resources. In todays episode I talk about how our political commons, such as free speech, can come under threat with a real occurrence when the current Australian Government attempted to pass legislation to censor content on the internet under the guise of misinformation and disinformation. Unfortunately much like cases of tragedy of the commons with natural resources I witnessed the same occur with our political commons.
