17:10 “See, without principles there is nothing to apologize for. If immediate gratification is the only thing that are making you tick. Is the only reason you have your entitled ass out of bed in the morning then what would you ever have to apologize for?” – Stefan Molyneux
18:40 “And this sort of feel good, fuck the future philosophy is why there´s been such a catastrophic growth in the state.” – Stefan Molyneux
20:20 ”See, when you let go of principles, then shoveling a bunch of money at the poor and deferring that bill to the next generation makes perfect sense, why? You have no principle called theft, no principle called properties right, no principle called personal responsibility or the deferral of gratification, no principle called deal with the immediate consequences of that which you prefer. When you choose the action as Doctor Phil says, you choose the consequences. There´s no principle behind that. And so, if you sort of feel well, it makes me feel good to help the poor and it makes me feel good to not to have to pay for it, and I kind of just want to black that out, how that´s gonna affect things in the future, then that is what is going to be supplied to you. Politicians are exquisite of veins of the social winds, and politician can only sell bullshit to people who are willing to eat bullshit. Politicians can only sell the fantasies of goodies in the here and now with infinite deferral of debt into the future to people who are willing to swallow that gassy pill, right? It´s not the supply that you need to look at, it´s the demand that you need to look at when you want to figure out how to change the world, right? Getting rid of fiat currency won’t change a damn thing if the population is still into fantasies.” – Stefan Molyneux
