Felony-Friday-Podcast.jpg

On today's episode of the Felony Friday Podcast, host John Odermatt is joined by the founder of Liberty.me, Jeffrey Tucker. Jeffrey is also director of digital development for the Foundation for Economic Education, executive editor of Laissez-Faire Books, research fellow at the Acton Institute, policy adviser of the Heartland Institute, and founder of the CryptoCurrency Conference. He has written many books and his latest book is called Bit by Bit: How P2P Is Freeing the World.This isn't Jeffrey's first time on the Lions of Liberty Podcast. A little over two years ago Jeffrey was interviewed by host Marc Clair. It was a wide ranging interview that touched on many areas Jeffrey is passionate about. However, today's interview focuses solely on the injustice of drinking age laws.Here's what we talked about:- Jeffrey's recent article titled: "Finally, Some Drinking-Age Progress"- Proposed legislation in New Hampshire, Minnesota and California that would, to varying degrees, lower the drinking age to 18-years-old.- Would lowering the drinking age lead to more responsible drinking? Do other government interventions, such as federal subsidized student loans, promote the infantilization of college students, thus creating an environment where reckless behavior thrives?- At what age can a person be considered responsible enough to decide what they can safely consume in what amounts?Check out Jeffrey's global liberty community, Liberty.me.
