Description

In this episode, Matthew gives the introduction from Hans-Hermann Hoppe's Lecture titled "What Must Be Done" That was given at the 1997 Mises Supporter's Summit in Newport Beach. Hoppe explains why peaceful cooperation exists among mankind and this is because of self-interest, that is to prefer more over less. With the division of labor peaceful cooperation can emerge out of the greatest social chaos and this is of course natural. But Hoppe explains that "something can and obviously has happened that disrupts and distorts or even derails this normal self-interest driven development, and this is of course the state."
