David R. Henderson, author of The Concise Encyclopedia of Economics, discusses the anti-Afghanistan war demonstration he organized in Monterey, California, the effectiveness of hypothesizing a role reversal to demonstrate the hypocrisy of U.S. exceptionalism, winning over conservatives by showing the economic consequences of war and how punitive sanctions designed to instigate regime change inevitably fail.

David R. Henderson, research fellow with the Hoover Institution, discusses the love-fest between Congressional Democrats and President Obama, the benefit of empire for a select few and the net loss for everyone else, the common misconceptions on what caused and worsened the 1973 oil crisis and the difficulty of communicating with people whose ideas and arguments are wrapped in insulating layers of emotion and patriotism.
