2 Worlds Collide Podcast · #110 - Professor B. Beaumont Whitford - "Australia Has Forgotten How To Think" · 15 Jul 2026 podcast

I mean, you seem to be a pretty stoic guy.

You follow stoic philosophism?

I like the quote that a man who doesn't live or is afraid to live never truly lives.

A man who fears death never truly lives, basically it translates to.

And I think that the man who fears cancellation in our society doesn't truly live.

So I reckon everyone should speak up.

I think we've become entitled, though, when you were saying before about the misery that these kids are growing up with,

they've become entitled and they sort of believe that there's free stuff.

And it makes me angry to hear that things are free and that the government should provide.

Because anything the government provides, first of all, is not free.

Secondly, it's overpriced, probably inefficiently delivered.

So is it free?

Do we have a free medical system, for example, if grandma's hip is on a waiting list for 14 years and she dies with a dodgy hip?

Yeah, well, the debt's here.

And the reason we governments love inflation, and this is something that your readers should know, the reason why there is inflation because we print money.

And so those government debts...

will be inflated away, and your savings is what gets inflated away.

And that's where the trouble lies because governments actually like inflation because it means that their debt that they borrowed from other countries ends up being paid back in inflated dollars.

So when you hear Albo and everyone talking about, oh, it's the greedy corporations that are causing inflation, no, it's not.

It's the fact the government borrowed a lot of money to waste on the NDIS, on fraud in the NDIS, and now they're inflating the money so they can pay it back.
