Listen "Episode 12: Socialism - The Promises, The Reality and The Lessons We Ignore, Part 1"
Episode Synopsis
In Part 1 of this two-part deep dive, we unpack what socialism actually promises — and why the real-world outcomes consistently fall short.
I break down the most common socialist policies, what they look like in practice, and the historical examples that show a very different picture than the theory.
We also address the familiar argument that “those weren’t real socialism” by looking at the patterns, incentives, and consequences that repeat across countries, cultures, and decades.
No outrage. No labels. Just a clear, honest breakdown of what these ideas mean for freedom, prosperity, and everyday life.
