35:45 Pollution
37:28 Oceans

49:10 Thinking of a publically traded Lake Erie. Shares of ownership. Similar to privatizing highways— potential of income via it’s resources.. salmon, minerals, income from use, transportation (ezpassfor water access, for example)
50:07 if you can get past the anarcho-capitalist elements, there is a good book called Water Capitalism, written by some Austrian economists last decade

Live Questions:
1:23:21 Can you distinguish any differences between the words 'rights' and 'agreements' or are their meanings the same?
1:25:44 Capitalists not only can innovate to clean up pollution, but the innovate in ways that reduce pollution in the first place. Computers eliminating the need for most file cabinets full of paper come to mind.
1:27:10 Would a valid environmental solution be for a third party that wants to prevent a person from cutting trees pay the owner for land management?
1:28:10 Salutations! As an update, Microsoft won against FTC! The A-B deal can go through, despite the UK CMA. There is optimism for Amazon in light of this.
1:28:28 "I don't know" this I why I admire you but when you do know. that's why I watch
1:28:47 If one builds a huge ocean platform, do they own the water/land/oil/fish/reefs/volcanoes/trenches below/around it? How deep/wide does the deed go?
1:30:00 A lot of people like birds. How could birds fit in with private ownership?
1:31:35 Environmentalism is nothing but anti human nihilism. Is philosophic nihilism the premise that there are no truths? "Burn it all down" is the necessary psychological consequence?
1:33:02 Are environmentalists the most vicious and nasty of leftists? You see it in the chat.
1:34:24 To dig earth, chop trees, and tame animals
1:34:41 what role could "exclusion" play in manahing pollution through capitalism? Block has written much on this. but modern statists and economists resist change. Perhaps these fools can be excluded too?
1:35:42 If government sells land to private parties, what keeps it from turning around and seizing the land? If the sale includes an agreement to prevent that, who enforces it?
1:37:28 You mentioned that some people are pure evil and pure good. The reason I brought that up was bc Yeonmi Park brought up how not everyone is pure evil. Even the man who bought her as a sex slave gave her papers to escape to South Korea and showed moments of compassion.
1:39:44 Because communists don't create value and I create value. Go produce something people want communists.
1:39:58 Can mathematics operate divorced from observations in reality?
1:40:43 Outro
