The Election of Jesus, Veterans Radio with Diego Rivera - A Neighbor's Choice

If you vote for Biden, David Gornoski says, you're going to get more bailouts, more war, and more injustice. What should we do in this election?

"Who are we going to trust? I trust the man that says 'mercy, not sacrifice.'" Join David Gornoski as he gives us some much needed wisdom from the master of history going into this election. Also in this episode, Diego Rivera from Bring Our Troops Home joins in to talk about General Smedley Butler and his seminal book "War is a Racket" and the strange disappearance of the anti-war movement from Bush's time. Will foreign policy be a decisive factor in this election? Visit the A Neighbor's Choice website at aneighborschoice.com

Who Do You Imitate? - A Neighbor's Choice

An important question for our time: Who are our role models? In this age of regulations and barriers, can we have freedom? David Gornoski argues that we can and gives an example of how the invention of the musket equalized the playing field in war through innovation. But our prosperity won't mean anything, David says, if we are not able to cultivate good role models. Freedom and virtue must go together. We should celebrate good fathers. We should celebrate people like Lil Wayne who go against the grain, think for themselves, and escape the scapegoat rituals of our times. Listen to the full episode for all this and more.
