Harrison Smith discusses the growing momentum for a national tax strike in response to the Somali fraud scandal. He references Kurt Vonnegut's "Harrison Bergeron" to describe a dystopian drive for equality that brings society down to its lowest common denominator. Smith suggests that the global elite are engaged in a "controlled demolition" of civilization but are limited by the need to keep the American public "fat and happy" to prevent a total revolt.

Guest Luke Rudowski discusses the parallels between current university protests and the early days of Occupy Wall Street. He warns right-wingers against cheering for police brutality, arguing that state repression only serves to push the middle class toward radicalism. Rudowski advocates for a return to Ron Paul-style libertarian principles and an allergy to the expanding police state.
