Antitrust and Google with Ethan Yang


In this episode of The Rational Egoist, host Michael Liebowitz is joined by Ethan Yang, a full-time researcher at The Cato Institute and Adjunct Research Fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research (AIER), to discuss the contentious topic of antitrust regulation and its impact on Google.

Yang explores the implications of government intervention in tech markets, examining whether antitrust actions against Google align with principles of free-market economics.

Together, they delve into the broader debate on competition, innovation, and the role of government in regulating large corporations. Tune in for a thoughtful analysis of a pivotal issue in today’s tech-driven economy.


Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand’s philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism.

His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles.

Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms.

He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand’s teachings.
