The Rational Egoist: Overcoming Political Divisiveness and Restoring National Unity with Walter Olson
In this episode of The Rational Egoist, host Michael Liebowitz is joined by Walter Olson, a Senior Fellow at the Cato Institute's Robert A.
Levy Center for Constitutional Studies. Olson, known for his extensive writings on law, public policy, and regulation, delves into the issue of political divisiveness in contemporary America and explores strategies for returning to a semblance of national unity.
Through a thoughtful discussion, Olson and Liebowitz examine the roots of our current polarization and offer insights into how individuals and institutions can foster a more constructive and inclusive public discourse. Tune in for a compelling conversation on bridging divides and finding common ground in a deeply divided society.
Michael Leibowitz, host of The Rational Egoist podcast, is a philosopher and political activist who draws inspiration from Ayn Rand’s philosophy, advocating for reason, rational self-interest, and individualism. His journey from a 25-year prison sentence to a prominent voice in the libertarian and Objectivist communities highlights the transformative impact of embracing these principles.
Leibowitz actively participates in political debates and produces content aimed at promoting individual rights and freedoms.
He is the co-author of “Down the Rabbit Hole: How the Culture of Correction Encourages Crime” and “View from a Cage: From Convict to Crusader for Liberty,” which explore societal issues and his personal evolution through Rand’s teachings.
