Siberia and the Illusions of Utopia

Michael Malice, the popular podcaster and author, reminds us that tyranny can be defeated. It’s been done before.

In this podcast, Malice shares stories of life under totalitarian regimes, and explains how the media was often complicit in totalitarianism.

Malice’s distrust in government is why he’s calls himself an anarchist.

He makes the case that things like food, education, and even security, are better left in private hands.

“Maybe we don't need government at all,” he says. “When you have something as important as security or anything, food, education, to have it at the purview of a monopoly, let alone a government monopoly, makes no sense."

I’m skeptical that the private sector would do all those things better. So we debate those issues and more.
