I feel that it is highly unequal and unfair that I didn't get to see Rothbard in person

Fantastic talk. It's interesting that all the things being pushed now, are by no means a new thing.

[@akselkarlsson5229]

Keep uploading anything by Rothbard I haven't heard yet, it is much appreciated.

[@mignoyou]

What a gift!! Thanks, mises.org!!!

[@kmg501]

I've not heard of this lecture before and I've been vehemently railing against egalitarians for years. They're incredibly destructive.

[@gloriouscontent3538]

As you should be. Its nothing more than the pollicization of common loser mentality, thus indeed destructive.

[@Pinochetstan]

Rothbard strikes me as one of the most exceptional men in history.
Edit.
"nowadays you find a new oppressed every day" hits hard.

[@australiananarchist480]

The man was a genius for sure.

God I love this guy. :)

[@Freddy-Da-Freeloadah]

ROTHBARD!!! The antidote to Bernie. IMHO

[@SmashBrosBrawl]

Wow, this guy called leftists play by play. Amazing.

[@mignoyou]

God bless Rothbard!!!

No one wants absolute equality; even people like Bernard just want improvements for the people at the bottom. That is especially important as many who did well, succeeded due to the efforts of others, such as parents, relatives, teachers, etc, The Koch brothers preach libertairianism after inheriting a big business.

11:00 Elite Theory Rothbard 😅

[@vivekpetrolhead]

I hear little bit of Jordan Peterson in him.

[@krishivagarwal5189]

Jordan peterson makes a lot of points that he makes.

[@MitchellfcNa32]

JP supports equality of opportunity though? Rothbard rejects it

[@macsnafu]

Rothbard may have been a great libertarian writer, but geez, I don't know how long I could stand to listen to his nasally voice. Is there a transcript of this talk that I can just read?
Harrison Bergeron! Great story.

[@alainduncan3756]

Love his voice, just wish the audio quality was better.

[@stephencockett9959]

Deleted again?

[@chernobylcoleslaw6698]

This is so dated! Things have vastly improved in the last 30 years.........

[@jamesbancroft2467]

Rothbard sounds racepilled 👀
