Dr. J. talks with journalist Ron Bailey about the libertarian perspective on biotechnology, drugs, economics and contemporary politics. Bailey writes a weekly science and technology column for Reason magazine and is the author of Liberation Biology: The Moral and Scientific Case for the Biotech Revolution. Part 2 of 2. The last part of the podcast is the fourth installment of Cory Doctorow’s short story “Clockwork Fagin,” which appears in the anthology Steampunk! An Anthology of Fantastically Rich and Strange Stories from Candlewick Press. Cory’s podcasts can be found at his website craphound.com.
One comment for brevity's sake: at this time men want power far more than they want freedom, so freedom-- genuine freedom-- is a long time off, no one knows how long. Can I write these things without being accused of being provocative, can such be written at a postulation based on what I know at this time and what is IMO very likely for the near-future (not five, ten, etc. years in the future). Can it be written we each go by human time, not cosmic time and we have to go day-by-day fighting for freedom (and Americans fight about everything all the time)?
I sense a lack of candor concerning freedom, negating the freedom in some sense.
