Great podcast. Gary is so articulate, the way he can boil down complicated ideas and frame them simply is very impressive.
They're state funded universities so the state has considerable power over the ground rules that the universities apply. Nothing strange or new about this.
Free speech is not being allowed to say anything but having a right to enforce your own rules on your own property. If you say something I don't like I will kick you out of my property, easy as.
Free speech is a downstream consequence of property rights. The owner of the property makes the rules.

For the sake of argument less assume the tariff is voluntarily agreed upon between the two parties.
Do you think tariffs are a negative if there is a decrease in productivity levels but the host country becomes less dependent on other nations to produce essential goods?
The cost of tariffs is a less efficient allocation of global resources but the benefit is reducing a nations dependence and sovereignty levels on other powerful actors.
I think one has to judge it on a case-by-case basis to evaluate the value a nation should place on productivity over independence given the nations unique circumstances.
What are your thoughts?
Christian values, which are based on faith, often overlap with American values, which are for the most part, based on reality.
To conflate the two is a mistake but as a heuristic to support Christian values is an okay strategy.
Ethical rules and values should not be stated dogmatically but scrutinised on an individual case-by-case basis.
the current government business model is perverse and upside down but a proper government business, one that works like every private company, is essential to provide the legal system and police force. that's the proper role of government. a business that provides a certain service like any other.
