About this episode
The episode explores the contradiction of why individuals with anti-government views would choose to serve in government roles, focusing on Colorado legislators.
I’ve been thinking about a simple contradiction.If government is evil, corrupt, and illegitimate, why would someone want to serve in it?This video examines Colorado legislators with ties to anti-government activism, the political money that supports them, and the growing disconnect between the oath of office and the people taking it.Maybe the most important question isn’t who they are.Maybe it’s why they wanted the job in the first place.
