Not Republican or Democrat: Politics for the rest of us episodes

  • Education, Wealth and Social Division/Unity
    I explore several thoughts:
    - Social Division can often stem from historical disparities in education of wealth that often come from lack of market access due to the powerful using state protection of advantages over the powerless
    - Overtime these divisions lead to disparities that result in long standing prejudices that take just as long to fix once market access is restored
    - No social cohesion results in Division that leads to the desire to oppress one another, although too much social cohesion can lead people to being too willing to give up rights paving the way for tyrant later.
