This episode introduces most of the concepts we will be working with in this podcast. First and as promised, we discuss what I call the "3 Ways of Persuasion," that is, how we get people to do what we want them to do. They are: Consent, Force, and Fraud. Consent is arguably preferable, and it is the basis of Contracts, but there's alot of force and fraud going on in this world too. Then we talk briefly about the legal theory of Contracts and how Fraud works in the formation of contracts (none of this is legal advice). For example, fraudulently induced contracts are void or voidable. Then we discuss what happens when a party does not perform their end of a contract. For example, in the legal theory of contracts, what would happen when a government materially breaches the social contract which is the basis for its authority? Does it have any legitimate authority after that? Or, does it rule purely by force and fraud? Then we talk about various forms of Theft, particularly the ones involving Fraud. Get in here and get some answers.
