We discuss extremism in the US, the dangers of democracy and fear of capitalism and government.

We're revising our college plans, live, on air; and we reassess some of our previous contracts.

A lot of topics in this episode:  We start with a continuation of last week's discussion of people's market misunderstandings and transition into the Student Loan issues.  We spend little time on a couple of political figures soon to be retired, before asking unasked questions about the pox.  We finish with energy.

Are politicians evil or just stupid?  We talk about Cheney, Trump, previous Presidents and others. Then, we shift gears to explore why some people feel entitled to other people's property and why a free market is the answer, rather than the problem.

The feds are turning up the heat on Donald Trump, Alex Jones and sending a smoke signal to all critics and contrarians.

Self-contradictory acts of congress, thermonuclear chicken and disgraceful drone bombing are the topics of the week.

More is revealed by Drs. Birx and Fauci. Nadler has a transparent moment. All of this is insulting to the average American, but there may be blue skies ahead.

We're now, officially, two old men ranting; and in this episode we rant about self-ownership, food crises, energy crises and other crises.

A little gun control and immigration to start, but we quickly move to a future history fantasy. We spend the balance discussing the end of the American Century proclaimed by Harper's and the beginning of it called for by Life.

This year's Fourth of July special celebrates the Colonies' secession from the British Empire and wonders aloud if similar circumstances prevail today. As we live under the largest government in world history, is the curtailing of the legislative authority of government agencies another reason to celebrate?
