I am often asked what it means to be a libertarian. I'll admit at the begining it was hard to define. I knew I didn't support the seeminly endless wars and massive governement spending, but I also didn't think you should go to jail for doing things that only harm you (like using drugs)I think a lot of people feel that way. Many jaded republicans and democrats feel as though their beliefs are not truely being represented. More importantly, for those who are looking at the idea of libertarianism, there is a need for someone to clearly define it. I've heard a lot of different explanations about what a libertarian is but I think it's best to always work from principles. That's why I created the 5 principles of libertarianism for the show. It's a way for everyone to understand my philosophy and where my loyalties lie.Today on the show I talk about these 5 principles and how they can be used to assess any particular "issue" you might encounter.  For anyone who needs them here they are: Pro Limited Government- Government should exist to protect Life, Liberty and Property. Nothing more. Liberty is a primary political value.  (does an act of gov. increase or decrease an individual's liberty)Pro Individualism - The rights of the individual are above the rights of the collective. The individual is sovereign. Pro Tolerance - you should not interfere with things you do not agree with or disapprove of.Pro Peace - The principle of non intervention. Free movement of capital, labor, people, goods/services and Ideas.Pro Free Markets - No transaction Or cooperation should occur unless it is voluntary.It's my hope that these principles will help clarify your belief and help you better articulate what you stand for. JasonSupport the show.

It's not uncomon for me to see someones eyes glaze over when I start talking about monetary policy. Taking fed action and interest rates doesn't exactly make me the life of the party. It's easy to understand. When I say monetary policy most people think I'm talking about they companies policy on rembursing travel expenses. It's just not a topic followed by the bulk of Americans. With that said I know this audience is no ordinary group of people. So today I'm going to talk a little about the fed and why, by their own admission, they have failed so badly at predicting and then correcting the booms and busts we've seen over the last two decades.  And don't worry, I'll make so easy to understand you'll be able to explain it to your kids.Give it a listen and let me know what you think!Jasonhttp://www.jasonstapleton.comJoin the Private FB Group!https://www.facebook.com/groups/JasonStapletonProgram/Support the show.

Today we discussed the social gender experiments that are going on right now, and how we really aren't all created equal in all areas, but that doesn't have to do with rights. All that and more - including the Kim Davis story of the clerk who won't issue marriage licenses to gay couples.Enjoy the show!-Jason Visit http://www.JasonStapleton.com for full episodes, news updates and show notes.  Twitter: http://www.Twitter.com/Jason_Stapleton  Facebook: http://www.Facebook.com/TheLiveShowTV Roku: https://owner.roku.com/add/jasonstapleton If you are enjoying the show and would like to support what we're doing here, please consider donating to our cause.

I’ve had several requests to talk about the Syrian refugee crisis. It’s really not fair to call it a Syrian crisis although a huge number of Syrians are part of the refugee movement. A better way to frame the discussion would be to discuss the mass exodus of the war torn middle east and the millions of pilgrims making their way from Syria, Libya, Iraq and Yemen to countries in Europe.But the problem did not start in 2015. To get to the root of the problem we have to go back to 2010 and the little country of Tunisia to find out where things went so wrong.  Only after we understand how this crisis started can we begin to formulate a solution.Thanks to all of you who make this show part of your day. It has been my great pleasure to share an hour with you each and every day. Here’s to many, many more together. JasonVisit http://www.JasonStapleton.com for full episodes, news updates and show notes.  Twitter: http://www.Twitter.com/Jason_Stapleton  Facebook: http://www.Facebook.com/TheLiveShowTV Roku: https://owner.roku.com/add/jasonstapleton If you are enjoying the show and would like to support what we're doing here, please consider donating to our cause.

In a most recent case of "gender discrimination in Missourii at a public school one boy identifying as a woman says they can use whatever bathroom they want, Title 9 law backs up this claim that no one can discriminate. Now, this is a public school and since everyone owns it, only the government owns and gets to make the rules, whether others like it or not. Property rights would solve this issue.Not only that but the GOP is trying to get you to pledge to any republican candidate even if your favorite isn't nominated!-Jason Visit http://www.JasonStapleton.com for full episodes, news updates and show notes.  Twitter: http://www.Twitter.com/Jason_Stapleton  Facebook: http://www.Facebook.com/TheLiveShowTV Roku: https://owner.roku.com/add/jasonstapleton If you are enjoying the show and would like to support what we're doing here, please consider donating to our cause.

Well gang I had a couple of days off and it gave me some time to think. Most people don't know this, but when I get time away from the office I typically come up with some new hair-brained idea or new concept I want to share. I think it's because my brain is freed up from the normal day to day problems I typically deal with and it's when you're thinking about something the least that you have a breakthrough.One of the things that I had been struggling with since our discussion last week about economics was the idea of "fundamentals don't matter". I got some blow back when I made that statement last week and although I knew it was provocative I also knew I was right. But how do you explain a complex economic idea like human sentiment in such a short period of time. Answer: you can't.So I started writing the outline of a new paper I've loosely titled "The Theory of Individual Sentiment". In this paper I'm going to attempt to share my thoughts on where modern economists go wrong and the roll perception plays in our economic decision making.Today on the show I talk a little about this theory in more detail and wet your appetite for more. I also discuss the new educational series I'll be starting that will explain some of the basic ideas of economics in a way that will make it fun and easy to understand. That way you can destroy your opponents with unbeatable arguments that support your beliefs about liberty.Give the show a listen and don't forget to download the new app and subscribe to the show!Jason Visit http://www.JasonStapleton.com for full episodes, news updates and show notes.  Twitter: http://www.Twitter.com/Jason_Stapleton  Facebook: http://www.Facebook.com/TheLiveShowTV Roku: https://owner.roku.com/add/jasonstapleton If you are enjoying the show and would like to support what we're doing here, please consider donating to our cause.
