The Social Contract is an implicit agreement between everyone in a given society. Even babies. If that isn’t bad enough, it’s based on the conclusion that a society governed by law requires the sacrifice of its individual members' rights to remain secure.

Well said Mark!
Brilliantly said
There was a time in American history when this was a clear and understood concept. I hope we can find our way there again.
These get better and better
Mad respect, keep it up sir
The thing that strikes me the most is how this pitch-perfect deadpan delivery makes everything so darned entertaining. When you do the 5 hour takedown of Alexis de Tocqueville, I'll be here for it.
Spot on Mark!! 🎉
Thank you for everything you do. Sharing these had really helped to explain concepts to other people. The world would be a better place of more people understood these concepts.
Thank you for another thought provoking Reality Check. America needs to get back to teaching in depth about the DOI & Constitution. People in general do not know what their rights are ( and are not).
Excellent video as usual!
Well done! It moves quite well and I found no inconsistencies. I'll be watching for the next one.
Amazing per usual Mark!!!
b-b-b-b-but we live in a society!
Thank you Mark. 😁 as usual you’ve hit the nail on the head in an easily digestible manner.
Thank you for the work you do!

It is very common to use social contract phrase as an excuse to tame population. Since the beginning of the civilization, there were always a group of people needed to have the power over our actions, to make us feel secure enough to believe their lies. Unfortunately it became such a norm in our era, that we don’t realize what this threat turns us in to. What a shame.
It’s appalling how the constitution is no longer acknowledged as law. I’m grateful to get to be part of Arkansas Guardians of Freedom. There has to be other groups like that in other areas that help people defend their rights. My consultant friend says it’s not uncommon for these matters to be taken to Supreme Court, even though the judgement should be clear as per the constitution! We are sovereign and free. Can’t let anyone take that away.
Guess it’s time to remind myself of who John Galt is.
I guess thousands of years on an island gave you a lot of time to think about this stuff.
The devil is in the details
Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us; if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself. 2 Timothy 2:11-13 NIV If you have not yet given your life to Jesus Christ, please do so today, tomorrow might be too late. Jesus loves and cares for you. Accept Him today as your Lord, Savior and Redeemer. Confess all your sins and forsake them. Pray for the grace to live holy and righteously for Jesus Christ, and be saved.
