Carter begins by adding a point he forgot to include in the last show, "What's so great about Western Civilization?" Then he dives into a question from community member Richard, who asks: "If Bitcoin had existed at the time of the founding fathers, what, if any, difference do you think it might have made?" After an overview of the Jeffersonian vs. Hamiltonian perspective on central banking, Carter dives into the primary topic of the episode: principles. He defines principles in relation to human action, discusses how crucial principles are for humans as conceptual beings, and sketches an outline for how one might identify and integrate principles in a variety of domains, including morality.
