Muscle for Life with Mike Matthews

Ep. #643: Sal Di Stefano on Why You (Maybe) Shouldn’t Vote


Listen Later

Now that Beyond Bigger Leaner Stronger 2.0 is successfully launched, it’s time to get back to your normal podcast programming . . .

Well, not quite.

This episode is not about health and fitness. It’s another conversation with Sal Di Stefano (of Mind Pump Media fame) and this time we’re discussing the topic of voting.

We cover all sorts of tangential subjects to voting like taxes and free markets, but then we get to the crux: a discussion about democracy and what makes it work.

Is America a pure democracy? How would mob rule actually play out? Is it always responsible to vote?

We chat about these important questions, as well as many other topics, including . . .

  • Why it’s ok to not vote (and why many people shouldn’t vote)
  • What determines whether you should vote or not
  • Why democracy is difficult to administer
  • Why voting should probably be more restricted than it currently is
  • What’s more powerful than voting
  • And a lot more . . .
  • Sound interesting? Listen in to our conversation and let me know what you think!


    7:45 - Why do we talk about touchy subjects that don’t involve exercise on our podcast?

    46:10 -  Why is it important to vote and why is it also important not to vote?

    1:21:41 - How do I educate myself on voting?

    1:47:50 - What about a basic universal work program?

    1:50:57 - What are your thoughts on child labor laws?
