"Bit coin is just an idea, money that you can't steal from people," he says. "If that can spread through the use of it coin, good." But some bit coiners are leftists who want to regulate my life in other respects, but in other ways they want to control me".
Yaron Brook joins me for a discussion on Ayn Rand’s philosophy of Objectivism where we discover how Reason has created progress, freedom, and the pursuit of a good life. This series will loosely follow Ayn Rand's written work "The Virtue of Selfishness."
