BEST MOMENTS

"If you want to see who controls the world, follow the money... this is a huge battleground that is coming, and it's possibly the biggest battleground of the lot."

"Between taxes and currency debasement, more than 50 per cent of everything you ever own will be taken from you from the government... It's 50 per cent relentlessly throughout your whole life.”

"Libertarianism has become the belief system of the internet. But it hasn't actually taken hold in the real world yet because the way political systems are, it can't take hold."

"The problem with government and so much of the way modern businesses run is all spreadsheet based... but actually you need this sort of accidental stuff and you have that in free markets and capitalism because it's just built in."

"You look at why people don't have families, why they have kids later in life, the most commonly given reason is expense... A generation ago, you could have a middle class lifestyle with one parent, not two."
