S1E7 - Bread and Circus
Since the days of the Roman Empire, politicians have promised their people anything they desired. In doing so, they could cover up their incompetency and foolish plans. Are we so different today? Find out in a shorter episode of SEF.
Welcome to Self-Evident and Forgotten, a podcast on the truths of liberty and odd opinions! Hosted by Stanton, Kristi, and Cody, we explore the beautiful ideas often forgotten today that have given life to a free, peaceful, and prosperous society.
Since at least the Roman Empire, politicians and leaders have promised their people anything they want to hear. Food, roads, entertainment, you name it. It's a tactic that has been used to cover up mistakes, foolishness, or undesirable plans. And we here at SEF asked ourselves, are our presidential elections just bread and circus politics, the same kind used by emperors of antiquity? Because if it is, then we have a serious problem for liberty. Join us for a shorter episode of Self-Evident and Forgotten!
