Professor Wall welcomes former Marxist and Mises Institute scholar Dr Michael Rectenwald to “From Steal to Secession AM” for a discussion on why it is so important to maintain a healthy distrust of consolidated government power, even in the age of Donald Trump. Why is simply changing the people wielding the instruments of power not enough to restore liberty? What is it about power itself as well as the very nature of the state that makes it so dangerous for such powerful structures to be left functioning? How does secession play into the whole picture of rolling back the abuses of power?
