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."

| 0:00.0 | So Dominic, what's the state of the UK right now? |
| 0:03.9 | Well, the UK and the world, I think, is in a really interesting, really interesting place. |
| 0:09.2 | And it's like we're at a, I wouldn't say we're at a crossroads because we've already chosen which path we're going down. |
| 0:13.7 | So I wrote a book in 2011, 2012 called Life After the State. |
| 0:18.6 | And the central argument of that book is that the state, you can look at |
| 0:22.4 | almost any economic injustice in society, any problem in society. And almost inevitably, |
| 0:28.5 | if you trace back its ultimate cause, you will find it as some, the state in some form or other. |
| 0:33.7 | So why do we have, you know, why is our education such a disappointment, the state? Why is |
| 0:38.4 | healthcare not working? You trace it back and you go to the state. And if you look at people's |
| 0:42.1 | contentment levels with, say, you know, the local council, with education, with government, |
| 0:47.6 | with NHS, police, whatever, the police, you know, they are, people are really angry and |
| 0:54.0 | and really discontent. |
| 0:55.2 | But if you look at people's contentment levels with things that the free market provides, |
| 0:59.0 | so for example, clothes or food. |
| 1:02.1 | On the whole, people are pretty content. |
| 1:03.9 | Or tech, which comes down in price and up in quality. |
| 1:06.5 | Tech, even more so. |
| 1:07.7 | Yeah. |
| 1:08.0 | Even more so. Even more so. I mean, people may moan about what social media is doing, but we are all on social media all the time and we love Twitter and Facebook and whatever it is. And obviously one is supplied by the free market for profit and the other is supplied by government and the taxpayer pays. And so I, with that thought in mind, I basically made the argument that anything the state touches turns to crap, |
| 1:28.7 | and we're better off with the private sector providing everything, and we're better off with |
| 1:32.8 | as little state as possible in our lives. So I made the argument for much lower taxes, |
| 1:37.4 | that the private sector could provide healthcare to a much higher standard and a much lower |
