This episode talks to Dr. Titus Gebel about how Free Private Cities could fundamentally change the way we view government as a whole and force governments to compete for their citizens. We also explore why the structure of government hasn’t changed much throughout history and why democratic welfare states eventually all decline and create social unrest among their societies.

We cover some of the following topics:

• What “Free Private Cities” are, and how they differ from “Special Economic Zones” and other similar models
• Historic and successful examples of Free Private Cities and why they didn’t prevail
• Why the structure of government hasn’t changed much throughout history and why moving to another country isn’t always a viable option
• If Free Private Cities have a majority appeal
• How and why democracies around the world have been failing us
• Why do democratic welfare states eventually all decline and create social unrest among their societies
• Why do small countries with a limited government and countries with little social structures tend to be more hospitable and have more tight-knit communities
• Real-life examples of Free Private Cities from around the world along with their biggest challenges
• How social welfare, education, taxes, crime, and other issues would be handled in Free Private City

In this episode, I talk to Tony Ingesson about why the Swedish army was viewed as trigger-happy and insubordinate during the Bosnia war and was celebrated as war heroes, whereas the very disciplined and professional Dutch army forced the entire Dutch government to ultimately resign.

We cover some of the following topics:

• Why other countries and politicians viewed the Swedish army as a bunch of trigger-happy and insubordinate mavericks during the Bosnia war
• How their actions and maverick attitude led them to save over 200 civilian lives
• Why the actions of the very disciplined and professional Dutch army lead the entire Dutch government to resign and the insubordinate Swedish army to be viewed as war heroes
• Where the insubordinate behavior of the Swedish army originated from and how the Swedish military culture of mission command differs from that of other armies
• Why a high degree of autonomy makes sense for certain scenarios and units
• How decisions are made in the military and what types of leadership styles are used for which units
• Why the UN didn’t allow the peacekeeping soldiers to shoot back, despite being attacked and tasked with protecting civilians

• How a company can continue to add innovative features to its product without killing the usability or turning it into a product that nobody wants to use,
• How to create and foster high-performing teams,
• Why almost all browsers can be traced back to a single origin,
• How, despite the seemingly endless browsers out there today, there‘s actually very little choice and competition for end-users,
