Chaos Theory + Market Anarchy with Jeffrey Phillips

About this episode

Jeffrey Phillips is a libertarian turned anarchist who used to fix my veggie diesel Benz back in L.A. He’s an outspoken advocate for market anarchy, and joined me for a rollicking conversation about how it could actually work. Our conversation was inspired by the following video, which I highly recommend watching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLCINN36Jjc&ab_channel=JeffreyPhillips Find Part 2:danikatz.locals.comwww.patreon.com/danikatz Jeffrey’s YouTube channel:https://www.youtube.com/@JeffreyPhillips Show notes:
