LA Observations of Negative and Positive Liberties (Part II)

Nick kicks-off episode 25 of the Far Middle with a salute to Raiders’ Wide Receiver Fred Biletnikoff—Super Bowl MVP, Pro and College Football Hall of Famer, and recipient of many other awards and a career marked by numerous accomplishments. This Far Middle installment is a sequel to episode 24 and continues Nick’s observations following a recent trip to Los Angeles. This episode's “connections" include: the restaurant and service economy; government regulation; the pandemic’s benefits to California state government; carbon powering California’s economy and quality of life; inflation; crime, and more. Nick closes with a discussion on how governments at all levels and elites are eroding both our negative and positive liberty.
