"The free market will vastly outperform anything the government can do." FULL EPISODE: https://youtu.be/AJsff03S_xg On this Bitcoin Talk episode of THE Bitcoin Podcast, Walker talks with Dave Bradley about the legitimacy of the state, why the modern State cannot go on much longer, why decentralization beats centralization, what the State looks like on a Bitcoin standard, the law, property rights, and why a minimal government approach would lead to better outcomes than the collectivist models of the past century. ***** Takeaways Nobody alive opted into the current system. The legitimacy of the state has diminished. The state should act as a service provider. Property rights are nearly non-existent in major cities. Government spending often prioritizes non-essential projects. Free healthcare is not truly free or effective. The free market outperforms government solutions. A minimal government can lead to better societal outcomes. Historical collectivism has led to disastrous planning. A country focused on essential services will outperform others. ***** DAVE's LINKS: X: https://x.com/BitcoinBrains Nostr: https://primal.net/p/npub1r4xdmmtmlmcfdzjgekmjk8r2svguptnq4p3j8jneyca7eqyeg3eqj70jus Web: https://bitcoinbrains.com ***** GET YOUR BITCOIN OFF EXCHANGES AND KEEP IT SAFE WITH BITBOX: Go to http://bitbox.swiss/walker and use promo code WALKER for 5% off the Bitbox02 Bitcoin-only hardware wallet.
