On today’s episode of the Two Mikes Colonel Mike and Dr. Mike had the pleasure of discussing the U.S. economy and politics with renowned Libertarian and financial expert Murray Sabrin. Dr. Sabrin started by explaining that the idea of non-intervention applies to the domestic economy as well as the nation’s foreign policy. Both are better off when the federal government does not align itself with interventionism. On the domestic economic front, he reminded us that we live in a profit-and-loss economy, success and bankruptcy are both common occurrences, and that is a natural outcome in a capitalist economy where the consumer is ultimately the proper judge of success or failure for all companies. If a company is going to fail, it is because the consumers’ have decided that its products are over-priced or inferior in quality. In that circumstance, the business must choose for itself between improving their product quality and moderating prices, or simply closing shop. The wrench is the system, naturally enough, is the federal government which far too often interferes and subsidizes failing businesses thereby making matters worse with economic costs increasing and taxpayer dollars wasted. In a profit-and-loss economy, like America’s, a national government policy of non-intervention in the national economy invariably produces a decline in poverty, improved products, additional jobs, and the success of better run companies and reasonably priced products. On foreign policy, the fruits of non-intervention in problems that are of no security concern to the United States are self-evident. International intervention by the United States causes wars –currently in Ukraine, Israel-vs-Iran and, this week, in Syria. As important, war for the United States is always a losing endeavor. Notwithstanding the obscene amounts of taxpayer money spent on the U.S. military since 1945, U.S. general officers have been dominated by men and women who have – over the past 80 years – decisively proven that they are unable to win against always weaker enemies. Having lost every war Washington has chosen to fight since 1945, there is no doubt that money is not the answer to end our binge of defeats, but rather it’s a prolonged and glaringly apparent failure of leadership, strategy, courage, and – enormously so – commonsense at nearly every level of the U.S. military Dr. Sabrin also delivered a surprise during our discussion. He announced that he is forming a committee to help him determine if he should attempt a run for the U.S. presidency in 2028. He said that he also is building a soon to be ready app called “Make Americans Financially Independent” or MAFI. Via that App he intends to elicit opinions about what people thing about the country’s economy, quality of life, and foreign policy, as well as to get their response to some of his plans he has if he becomes president, such as ending the income tax and ending the U.S. government’s interventionism at home and abroad. He also said that one of the main factors contributing to the federal government’s ever increasing authoritarianism is the stripping the states of the powers assigned to them by the Constitution. A process of returning powers that belong to the states would, naturally, strip the federal government of the powers that have been systematically stolen from the states since the end of the Civil War. At the present moment, almost all domestic matters the Congress and the President are involved in are rightly the sole responsibility of the states under the Constitution.SPONSORS Triangle Fragrance: https://trianglefragrance.com/?sca_ref=4171318.dUndUHDKz3 Cambridge Credit: https://www.cambridge-credit.org/twomikes EMP Shield: https://www.empshield.com/?coupon=twomikes Our Gold Guy: https://www.ourgoldguy.com www.TwoMikes.us
