I know there's a lot of cynicism about the state and about government, but in my view,

every single state and every government is a value-laden enterprise.

It's the use of power, coercive power, but that power is always used by people who have some

good in mind and it's some value value that they think is the top the top moral value.

Hey everybody. Welcome to the What is Money Show. I am thrilled to have you here joining me on my

0:37.1

mission to help shine light on

0:38.7

the collection of money. Now, if this is your first time listening to The What Is Money Show,
