  1. 4:00 “Public policy” is an excuse to be irresponsible with your society. The more you give up to centralized governments in a diversified society, the more tyranny is applied. Learn about large complex systems before making ridiculous comments. 26:00 It’s more efficient for a collection of households to delegate a portion of their population to handle food prep which also lends itself to communal coherence. 29:00 “Fetishization of individual liberty” Typical emotional rhetoric designed to fetishize tyranny. You REALLY need to understand how large complex system evolve. Your bias is dangerous to unthinking public. 29:30 “Democrats tend to favor collectivist solutions.” Yeah. The minority population is all too aware of those “solutions,” mate. Take, for example, the Democrat solution of redlining. The biggest factor you are omitting is the cultural monolithic nature of Eastern society. The tremendous xenophobic nature of these cultures results in more cultural cohesion allowing for the accepted sharing of resources. The West’s “culturally tolerant” character results in more centralization through national government which dilutes all cultures and drives the inter-cultural animosity we see today. 32:00 “labor cost is highly relevant to the cost of preparing food.” Yep. So is regulatory cost that you find in Democrat run localities. Look up “Chart of the Century” to see what excessive national subsidy and regulation does to a market sector. Your “collectivism” is only viable with smaller populations. In larger populations with far less representation through higher numbers of meaningless relationships, it is unstable, inefficient, and tyrannical. Fact. 40:00 As if to underscore my previous point, you advocate for an obsolete system that has artificially inflated the COST of education and deflated the VALUE of a diploma. “Get into the halls of power where you can do some good.” Chest. No.
