Listen "3148 Being Clubbed With An Inert Brain - Call in Show - December 9th, 2015"
Episode Synopsis
Question 1: Is it moral to willingly contribute to an immoral system? If you start a successful business that adds value to society, a significant portion of that value will be stolen to fund all the immoral things that people in government do. Isn't it better to create as little value as possible in order to reduce their funding?Question 2: Are OSHA and other agencies like the EPA, FDA, and USDA necessary? Do you feel that it is better to have no formal organization, and to allow the workers to sort it out by actions such as simply boycotting the company and instructing others to not engage in business with them as they do not provide safe working conditions to their employees?Question 3: To what magnitude does deceptive language, or "double speak", affect people’s perceptions on these problems, and can we lessen the impact of "double speak" by using forms of it?Question 4: You mention the r/K selection theory and the corresponding gene sets as a possible explanation for behaviors and preferences. Does this modify your view on free will? Ultimately, why does the free will debate matter? Either we all have it or not - or is there a notion of "gradients of freewillism" used to justify the socialist agenda by putting those endowed with the "largest free will" at the top?
