Summary

In the today’s episode, host Marc Clair welcomes in Professor Lauren K. Hall, associate professor of political science at the Rochester Institute of Technology! Lauren has done extensive work on classical liberalism and the relationship between classical liberal theory and the family. Lauren explains just what classical liberalism is and where it falls among all the terms we often here discussed in the liberty movement, from minarchy to anarchy to simply “libertarianism.” Marc and Lauren discuss the gender wage gap, whether there is any legitimacy to the claims made regarding differences between the sexes in the business world, and the calls for government regulations to address it. They go on to touch on topics such as the age of consent, mandated family leave, abortion, and more! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
