Episode Synopsis

Question 1: [2:30] - “How can charitable organizations, especially in third world countries, make a positive impact without creating dependency and negatively affecting local economies? Simply put, how do we help without hurting? I have been working with the same non-profit organization in a very poor part of a Central American country for nearly 10 years.”“This issue has weighed heavily on my mind since I've come to understand how people respond to incentives and how toxic the welfare state can be to society, in large part due to the influence of the arguments and evidence you've presented in your show. Specifically, I'm greatly concerned about our Adopt-a-Student programs (reduced incentives to earn/work) and medical/dental clinics which compete with other local clinics using tax-free US donations.”Question 2: [41:08] – “How do we get women to be patriotic again? Women in the West have been taught to question their instincts when it comes to real threats, and overreact to imaginary threats. I see this with the female response to the immigration crisis. The bigger problem is they don't realize the real threats, both physical and existential, that our men face.”“With one brother in the military and another in law enforcement, I know whose lives will be on the line if things get bad, but most of my female friends seem to be fine with letting the migration of those who don't support Western values to continue unabated, while complaining about their husband not understanding how hard the morning routine is with the kids. Why do women treat strangers better than their loved ones, and how do we reignite patriotism, and a love of Western men, in women?”Question 3: [1:22:34] - “What evidence can you use to establish the possibility of God? I'm not looking for absolute proof of God exists, as that's impossible, as with the converse - definitively establishing God does not exist. Just ideas, scientific theories, and personal observations that would fall into the ‘God is possible’ column.”Question 4: [2:15:48] - “I'm a Venezuelan immigrant to America and many fellow Venezuelans and American media portray Trump as the American Chavez. How would you compare these two characters? How would you compare Obama and Chavez? What are the parallels between the situation in Venezuela before Chavez and Communism and the current situation in the US, and what are the differences?”Freedomain Radio is 100% funded by viewers like you.
