The Origins of the Roman Law

Stephan Kinsella joins me to continue our discussion about the book "A Theory of Socialism and Capitalism: Economics, Politics, and Ethics" by Hans-Hermann Hoppe. We discuss the impact of incentive schemes on productivity, the fake communism of the USSR, modern-day slavery, and why Bitcoin is the ultimate solution to centralization. 

Stephan Kinsella is an American intellectual property lawyer, author, and deontological anarcho-capitalist.
