341: Selling the Monet
Elizabeth Warren, Infrastructure and Marauding Bands
Elizabeth Warren is criticized for a viral speech arguing that wealthy factory owners owe their success to publicly funded infrastructure and education. Her comments about "marauding bands" are compared to the rhetoric in Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" and the recent federal raid on Gibson Guitar. The hosts argue her perspective ignores the risks taken by entrepreneurs and the taxes they already pay.
