Interview With Brian Simpson, Ph.D.
Brian and I explore his new book, "A Declaration and Constitution for a Free Society," which revises the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution to consistently protect individual rights.
What is the proper role of government in creating money? Does our Constitution, as written and interpreted by the courts, really protect us from government abuse? How would the Constitution have to be written to protect us from mandatory lockdowns and other pandemic-related rights violations? Our conversation explores these and other issues from Brian’s free-market perspective.
