About this listen
From a hidden spark in the early days of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic soon roared across every nation, decimating lives, economies, and social norms. Rather than uniting people to defeat a common enemy, the pandemic has widened economic, political, and social divisions everywhere. It has pitted faith against reason and inflamed the global scourges of poverty, racism, war, and environmental destruction.
The pandemic has also surfaced proposals to remake the global economy and society. Most notable - and notorious - are a set of recommendations from the 2020 World Economic Forum calling for "the Great Reset". Blending welfare-state socialism and monopoly capitalism, this would systematically eliminate a fundamental bulwark of personal independence and freedom - the universal right to, and rights of, private property.
Is the Great Reset the scheme of a vast global elite to control the lives of ordinary people or a well-intentioned but dangerously misguided approach to correct systemic ills? Regardless, there is a question we all must ask: How will the dignity, freedom, and power of each human person be protected and promoted when universal human rights and their Transcendent Source have been rendered irrelevant?
In The Greater Reset, Greaney and Brohawn trace the historical, religious, political, and economic roots of humanity’s perilous condition and how returning to God-given, universal principles of natural law, with equal access to the institutions of the common good, can help build a more just, liberating, prosperous, and hopeful future for every person.

Anyone opposed was sent to be “re-educated.” China’s revolution was bloody, fast, and a failure, but what if America started a revolution at the same time, based on the same bad ideas, and it’s just been slower, calmer, and more effective?

Behind a smokescreen of “preparing students for the new industrial economy,” early progressives had political control in mind. America’s original schools didn’t just make kids memorize facts or learn skills; they taught them to think freely and arrive at wisdom. They assigned the classics, inspired love of God and country, and raised future citizens that changed the world forever.

Welcome to 2030. I own nothing, have no privacy, and life has never been better. This is the vision of the Great Reset, according to globalist leaders. While proponents of the Great Reset push slogans like “Build Back Better”, “The Fourth Industrial Revolution”, and “A New Normal”, the Reset is nothing short of a rebranded Soviet system, threatening to strip away property rights, restrict freedom of movement and association, and radically reshape our diets and way of life.

In Rediscovering Americanism, Mark R. Levin revisits the founders' warnings about the perils of overreach by the federal government and concludes that the men who created our country would be outraged and disappointed to see where we've ended up. Levin returns to the impassioned question he's explored in each of his best-selling books: How do we save our exceptional country? Because our values are in such a precarious state, he argues that a restoration to the essential truths on which our country was founded has never been more urgent.

Story
Here is Hans Hoppe's first treatise in English - actually his first book in English - and the one that put him on the map as a social thinker and economist to watch. He argued that there are only two possible archetypes in economic affairs: socialism and capitalism. All systems are combinations of those two types. The capitalist model he defines as pure protection of private property, free association, and exchange - no exceptions. All deviations from that ideal are species of socialism, with public ownership and interference with trade.

Roger Scruton’s How to be a Conservative presents the case for modern conservatism not in the terms of an elegy but rather as a practical example of how to live as a conservative despite the pressures to live otherwise. As he writes, the book ‘is not about what we have lost, but about what we have retained, and how to hold on to it’. In this witty and frank account, Scruton draws on his years of experience as a counter-cultural presence in public life.

An unimpeachable classic work in political philosophy, intellectual and cultural history, and economics, The Road to Serfdom has inspired and infuriated politicians, scholars, and the public for half a century. Originally published in 1944 - when Eleanor Roosevelt supported the efforts of Stalin, and Albert Einstein subscribed lock, stock, and barrel to the socialist program - The Road to Serfdom was seen as heretical for its passionate warning against the dangers of state control over the means of production.

The Quest for Cosmic Justice shows how confused conceptions of justice end up promoting injustice, how confused conceptions of equality end up promoting inequality, and how the tyranny of social visions prevents many people from confronting the actual consequences of their own beliefs and policies.

Francis Fukuyama's prescient analysis of religious fundamentalism, politics, scientific progress, ethical codes, and war is as essential for a world fighting fundamentalist terrorists as it was for the end of the Cold War. Now updated with a new afterword, The End of History and the Last Man is a modern classic.

Story
Why You Think the Way You Do traces the development of the worldviews that underpin the Western world. Professor and historian Glenn S. Sunshine demonstrates the decisive impact that the growth of Christianity had in transforming the outlook of pagan Roman culture into one that—based on biblical concepts of humanity and its relationship with God—established virtually all the positive aspects of Western civilization.

Story
In the years between her first public lecture in 1961 and her last in 1981, Ayn Rand spoke and wrote about topics as different as education, medicine, Vietnam, and the death of Marilyn Monroe. In The Voice of Reason, these pieces are gathered together in book form for the first time. Written in the last decades of Rand's life, they reflect a life lived on principle, a probing mind, and a passionate intensity. With them are five essays by Leonard Peikoff, Rand's longtime associate and literary executor.

Story
Like F.A. Hayek, Ludwig von Mises moved beyond economics in his later years to address questions regarding the foundation of all social science. But unlike Hayek's attempts, Mises' writings on these matters have received less attention than they deserve. Theory and History, writes Rothbard in his introduction, "remains by far the most neglected masterwork of Mises". Here Mises defends his all-important idea of methodological dualism: one approach to the hard sciences and another for the social sciences.

On Anarchism

Story
On Anarchism provides the reasoning behind Noam Chomsky's fearless lifelong questioning of the legitimacy of entrenched power. In these essays, Chomsky redeems one of the most maligned ideologies, anarchism, and places it at the foundation of his political thinking. Chomsky's anarchism is distinctly optimistic and egalitarian. Moreover, it is a living, evolving tradition that is situated in a historical lineage; Chomsky's anarchism emphasizes the power of collective, rather than individualist, action.

Story
Ryszard Legutko lived and suffered under communism for decades - and he fought with the Polish anti-communist movement to abolish it. Having lived for two decades under a liberal democracy, however, he has discovered that these two political systems have a lot more in common than one might think. They both stem from the same historical roots in early modernity, and accept similar presuppositions about history, society, religion, politics, culture, and human nature.

What constitutes the good life? What is the true value of money? Why do we work such long hours merely to acquire greater wealth? These are some of the questions that many asked themselves when the financial system crashed in 2008. This book tackles such questions head-on.The authors begin with the great economist John Maynard Keynes. In 1930 Keynes predicted that, within a century, per capita income would steadily rise, people’s basic needs would be met, and no one would have to work more than fifteen hours a week.

Story
In 2014, Francis Fukuyama wrote that American institutions were in decay, as the state was progressively captured by powerful interest groups. Two years later, his predictions were borne out by the rise to power of a series of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies threatened to destabilize the entire international order. These populist nationalists seek direct charismatic connection to “the people”, who are usually defined in narrow identity terms that offer an irresistible call to an in-group and exclude large parts of the population as a whole.

Paradigm Shift Needed: Why it's Own or Be Owned
My father is 92. I've had a front row seat to his efforts to change the system.
The Greater Reset represents the next generation authoring a manuscript, with the potential to reach a wider audience. Running short on time, my dad has expressessed frustration that I have not been engaged enough, and that Dawn and Michael's book does not go far enough in calling for the kinds of structural reform our democracy needs if we are to avoid Civil War or collapse of our political system.
The Greater Reset is a mindnumbingly ambitious undertaking. CESJ represents a merger of the teachings of Fr William Ferree on social justice and Louis Kelso's framework for enabling non-owners to become owners without taking anything from existing owners, while overcoming the tyranny of past savings. It makes a case for the proposed Economic Democracy Act and explains in some detail how to create an ownership society, and by the way, it proposes a new Papal Encyclical on Economic Justice.
The book uses a competing vision, The Great Reset, effectively as a foil. It explains the philosophical roots of Klaus Schwab and Thierry Malleret, and explains how their well-intended scheme would continue patterns of increased monopolization of wealth producing assets. Schwab and Malleret's declaration that in the future, nobody would own anything and you will like it, is challenged as a threat to individual liberty.
Honestly, if it had not been on Audible, the book would have collected dust -- my mind said, too difficult -- but I listened and was a little stunned how well it held my attention. Despite some of its flaws, the authors succeeded in getting my attention and building my anticipation for their next book. I even spoke about it to the local candidate who was going door to door for signatures yesterday in the bitter cold. Deja vu.
Around the time I began my freshman year at Georgetown University in 1981, my dad, mom, sister, her husband Rowland, the late Bill Schirra, Fr. William Ferree, and a few others founded the Center For Economic and Social Justice (CESJ) in a cafeteria at American University.
Having worked at at Employee-Owned company for over 15 years after graduating from college in 1985, I've benefitted financially from principles of economic justice and it's application in a leveraged ESOP, in a company that shared profits. I have also seen how hard it is to maintain a viable ownership culture in a going concern as a company undergoes rapid growth.. When I left in 2001, despite having earned considerable income, it felt like a failure.
Now I am a Special Education Teacher. I see entire communities who enter middle school with no little to no phonemic awareness or skill in phonics, who cannot add or subtract, and do not know their multiplication facts. Many are on free and reduced lunch. We provide free education, but few are accessing it fully. We expect students to access a standard curriculum without providing the means of accessing it.
When a democracy becomes as unbalanced as exists today, widespread alienation becomes a natural result. I eagerly await the next book, Own or Be Owned
