Blast Off! With Johnny Rocket Episode #68: Insure This! (w/Moral Bob)

The Launch Pad Media

Show Summary: Johnny and Raylene have a great discussion with Moral Bob about how free markets would utilize private insurance with no government interference. Bob gets into an in-depth analysis of how free markets are not just the logical solution, they are the moral solution. Never forget, though we may not have a specific answer for how to solve every problem that could arise in a liberated world, without regulations and cronyism, big bold and creative minds WILL find them! Let's talk about unleashing these markets and let people protect themselves, their property, and find a sense of safety without theft, regulations, and violence. We think you'll really like this new mover and shaker, Moral Bob, who has a knack for simplifying the tough questions into "is this right or wrong" and coming out on the side of freedom, every time.

Bob has been tired of seeing the destruction of a once amazing country by tyranny, corruption, and force. Bob is a self-proclaimed rebel, an anarchist, and a warrior for freedom.

With the core principles of individual rights and peaceful solutions to problems. You can find it on all the major podcatchers.
