Summary

In today’s episode of the Lions of Liberty Podcast, host Marc Clair welcomes investor, author and blogger, Andrew Syrios! Andrew describes how he came to reject the left-right paradigm and identify as a libertarian politically, and what drove him to start writing on political and economic issues. After taking a few curves into the legality of abortion, and even murder (!?). Marc and Andrew start to dissect some common political memes that have cropped up as of late. They look the ideas of a a 90% tax on the “the 1%” and the concept of income inequality, and try to make sense of the never-ending stream of our modern “meme culture.” This was a fun conversation, and I’m sure all you liberty lovers will enjoy it!
