Personal Agency with Morgan Maxey
Episode description
I sit down with Morgan Maxey to discuss a variety of topics from his background of becoming a lawyer to social programs and the broken legal system. The theme that seemed to come up over and over was person agency and personal awareness. The US was built to be a system that favored the individual over the group. And part of that American structure was meant to allow individuals the freedom to pursue happiness which means both success and failure. Learning to own one's decisions without looking for others to blame is hard to do. It seems in modern times that many people are looking to blame others for not having what they want and worst yet is the desire to have the government provide their desires at the expense of others. I make an argument for a flat tax and the preference of use taxes over income tax. It does seem there will continue to be a need for government programs however the real questions are "what programs are needed" and "how do we limit them?"
