Comments by "Animal Farm" (@animalfarm7467) on "Is There Corporation Large Enough To Make Libertarians Fear Monopolies (w/Guest Charles Sauer)" video.
Thomas, why do you continue with Sauer on your show? When you ask Sauer to argue for any Austrian/Libertarian economic theory, all you are getting is the oligarchical spin from the Von Mises Institute. Those deceivers in the Von Mises Institute spend much of their time creating spin to induce doubt in the minds of those who are intellectually challenged and ignorant of the Koch/Oligarch strategy. Because Austrian/Libertarians only see the world in the frame of supply and demand (producers and consumers), they never consider those who actually produce – the worker. At least for the present time most of the population is made up of workers, thus the Libertarian movement is in conflict with the majority. No wonder Libertarians hate democracy and call it tyranny of the majority. So Thomas, your frequent interludes with Sauer are really a waste of time; you need to go to the source - Lew Rockwell. Maybe get Rockwell from the Von Mises Institute on your show and expose the source for what it is – pure spin.

Dave: The danger in Sauer is many will listen to this Von Mises Austrian spin and the weaker minds will accept its simple message because that's all they can understand. Sadly that's a large part of the population. Take for example the Libertarian Von Mises' spin - government is bad. For the simplistic mind looking at inequality, corruption, wars, and a corrupted democratic process, that appears to be a rational judgement. But these individuals who, by supporting the oligarchs' Libertarian/Austrian movement, will never be able to see it was the oligarchs who have corrupted the government. For example, the Kochs started the Tea Party movement but the individuals within the movement will never see or acknowledge the oligarchical corruption of the government. The majority of these individuals will never understand or accept the same oligarchs who started the Tea Party corrupted the electoral process through "Citizens United" and "Money is Free Speech". They will never be able to join the dots between the oligarchs "Right to Work" strategy and the deregulation of workers' rights and remuneration through the loss of collective bargaining. In a democracy where the majority are feeble minded, having them exposed to any message from the oligarchs intended to deceive is dangerous. For generations the oligarchs have colluded and by using the peoples' apathy against them, have created a nation if imbeciles. Just look at those who take the “left” and “right” media seriously and you will see what I mean.
