Thomas is great. Was very sad to hear about the death of his wife last week. RIP
Love Thomas Massie we need more people like him
itll never happen.
need a different approach
Two great men. Thank you Thomas, sorry for your loss.
Thomas Massie is practically the only current Congressman I respect. I was very sad to hear about his wife's passing recently. I hope he can manage to keep his head up.
Yes, one of maybe 5 that seem to take the duty seriously.
I got 100 utils of enjoyment from this conversation.
The world is a better place because of these two individuals.
Rep. Thomas Massie is the BEST. We are lucky to have someone like him to fight back against the LUNATICS.that are destroying this country. THANK YOU Rep. Thomas Massie!
Sorry to hear about Mrs Massie.. Respect to her.
This is when TH-cam needs a double thumbs up! What a great conversation between two based individuals.👍👍 (it is heartbreaking to think of this man having just lost his wife, probably just days after this conversation. 🙁 My condolences to Mr Massie. Thanks for all that you do for our country! Please take some time for yourself and your family. You are in my prayers.)
Never enough Massie! Get this man in the White House
Been a big fan of Thomas Masseie for several years. He's the best
Thomas Massie for President!
It's magical when kindred spirits from different worlds can discuss ideas, agree on atrocities, disagree on mechanics and resolve that further study and discussion can be not only fruitful...but enjoyable. Wow...humanity at its best.
Awesome interview - Massie is one of the only politicians I admire, especially since he introduced the bill to End The Fed
We need more men in politics like him Christ is king
Holy shit, that was awesome!
Get this man on again ASAP 🔥
Wow so cool having congressmen Massie on the show Saif!! Great interview, thank you!
Thanks, Saif and Thomas!
"I would just speak in numbers if I thought people would enjoy the podcast"
very quick with it hahah, that was a great pod
Massies a good guy
I LOVED this conversation! THANK YOU!!!
Saifedean x Massie - a combination that makes the Fiat Overlords tremble… 👀👏
This is great. Thank you both.
Two great minds. Excellent interview and conversation. Well worth the time. Thanks!
This was excellent
We need more like Massie in our government
Very sorry to hear about Mrs. Massie…. 🙏
Massie is such a likable guy. 👍🏼
I enjoyed this conversation between two based, unapologetic individuals, Can't wait for the next discussion between them on human action and why mathematical equations can’t solve the complexity of human behavior.
This was a great conversation. So rare to have intelligent people question each others thoughts.
And so begins congressman Massie’s decent down the Austrian economics rabbit hole
Thomas Massie is an absolute G.
Love Massie. I am sorry for his loss.
Couldn’t be happier to hear that back and forth. Epic shift in the Overton window. 🙌🏻
In 1967, Iz rah el deliberately and systematically attacked the U.S.S. Liberty; killing 36 sailors and injuring 100s.
Great episode
Great interview
He kicks ass.
This conversation went over my head. I hope they get together again. Great hearing great minds disagree.
Awesome listen. Great conversation in all its parts. Will definitely come back for more. I consider myself somewhat of a maths person myself, have to say you two are amazing^1,000,000
Great conversation ❤
That was fantastic.
I was honestly a little apprehensive about how these two personalities would mesh but wow was I way off. What a good conversation. I hope they find time for a follow up someday.
Amazing podcast 👏
Please discuss economic issues more often with these types of people.
Prayin for Thomas and his family
Awesome episode
Good Stuff
Based Massie
Massie for King.
this was so nice
Thomas Massie is a boss.
Love Massie
Awesome 🎉
Massie is brilliant and the salt of the earth. Obviously, a danger to the Establishment.
Love massie
@saifedean isn't BTC the economic constant?
Starts @3:30
Does anybody know when this was recorded?
Interesting bit on math and economics. On the individual level the value of anything will vary but the market price is the aggregate of all individuals. While no individual is exactly the same human behavior follows the Gaussian distribution. For the first time in history we have a fixed monetary unit that can better reflect that aggregate value. It won't be an exact science but it is as scientific as measuring the orbit of a planet around a sun x amount of light years away.
Sorry for your loss, Rep. Massie. Anyone know what happened?
When was this filmed
As much as I love Thomas Massie I don’t feel he understands how important it is to displace fiat.
Will Saifedean ever read and/or discuss “Hijacking Bitcoin”?
R.I.P to his wife. I think there's a good chance we know how that happened....
yup
At least let's fix the unit of measure and base it on sats.
Acquire as many satoshis as possible while uneducated people still accept dollars for them 😉
As much as I love Saifedean Ammous I think he erroneously discounts how important being a “Medium of Exchange” MOE is.
...and then there is the mom who bought The Bitcoin Standard for all (5) of her adult children!
"The world would benefit from another one or two Elon Musks"
And Saife just lets that one slide, what the hell?
(Statement between 7:00 and 8:00)
Very good speech on the Israel war crimes.
We know what they did
Saif why don’t you do all the ads maybe half way or sprinkle them rather than heavy ads minutes long at beginning? I would have subscribed but the heavy ads at the beginning puts me off brother. Love the channel and topics by the way.
👀
Love Massie but Kinsella PWNS him when it comes to IP
In impossible for economics predict satisfactions or decisions making that women will do, which are 50% of global population.
Massie is spot on about Road to Serfdom, by the end Hayek promotes a notion of world governance to safeguard the liberty principles. Total fail.
The other red flag is that Keynes and Hayek were lifelong friends. They appeared to have propped up a false dichotomy of Keynes' Malthusian top-down governance vs Hayek's pure bottom-up governance where private vices magically leads to public virtues.
The American System of Economics makes a ton more sense to me.
I thought they were going to kiss at the end lol
Great episode
Law of marginal utility ftw
Ammous the constant argument is not good. If you take ratios between quantities the constant cancel. You just make measurement in terms of how a quantity changes relative to another. Constants are just a proportionality quantity. You can rescale them, and everything is the same. It is a very very weak argument.
AIPAC off’d Massie’s wife.
The "running out of space/resources" problem shouldn't be laughed away IMO. It sucks because the loony tune lefties have ruined environmentalism, but biological populations grow exponentially until they run out of resources and establish a balance. We're still growing because we keep inventing new tech, but we're also consuming more valuable land that other megafauna could use. We've also impeded the migration patterns for thousands of species including the American Bison, who used to migrate from Mexico to Alaska every year.
a vow of illiteracy ahahah
Half of this is about Israel/Gaza
Zionism is way more than just patriotism to Israel Thomas. That said, a long format of this would be 🔥. You two were just getting started near the end. 👍
RFK Jr. is campaigning on using blockchain and AI to reduce wasteful government spending. I've made a few comments about how I think he's pandering, and get attacked because "I just don't understand the technology". I do understand, and fail to see how these tools will help a system that already suffers from a lack of accurate data.
I lost over $70k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Natalie Strayer..
To summarise the last part. You can't measure subjectivity. Like how do you measure love? Which unit would you use? Yet economist put subjectivity into mathematic formulas all the time. Like hedonic adjustments...
Can you run for president in 28?
Great episode
