5778 Why People Obsess Over Politics!

Freedomain with Stefan Molyneux - A podcast by Stefan Molyneux

In this follow up to a question asked in a livestream, I investigate why politics stirs such deep emotional responses, likening it to religious fervor. By contrasting those thriving in the voluntary market with individuals reliant on government funding, I reveal how these differing perspectives shape political identities. Drawing from my experiences in the Department of Education, I underscore how government roles can foster complacency and detachment from accountability, contrasting with the urgency found in the private sector.I address the generational conflict where older individuals often prioritize their comfort, risking the future of younger generations. Ultimately, I urge listeners to reflect on their political engagements, advocating for discussions that encourage cooperation over dependency on government support.Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!NOW AVAILABLE FOR SUBSCRIBERS: MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING' - AND THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI AND AUDIOBOOK!Also get the Truth About the French Revolution, the interactive multi-lingual philosophy AI trained on thousands of hours of my material, private livestreams, premium call in shows, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2022
