In this class, I break down why I believe socialism is a bad idea. I start by explaining what socialism actually means, then I get into why I’m not doing a counter-episode like I usually do. The truth is, I can’t make an honest argument in favor of something that disconnects effort from reward. When you remove responsibility, initiative, and growth, people get weaker, not stronger. So this one is straight to the point—I’m telling you exactly why socialism doesn’t work and why this conversation is one-sided on purpose.

Show Notes:
