Idaho’s Flock Cameras, Prop 1, and Free-Market Economics

This episode runs through Idaho’s fastest-moving fights: license-plate flock cameras and the Fourth Amendment privacy questions they raise, a local-government transparency story out of Lava Hot Springs, and the case for tariffs over federal income tax.

Idaho Prop 1, Flock Cameras & Why Groceries Get Taxed

Flock Cameras, the Fauci Diaries & Idaho’s Prop 1 Vote

Flock Cameras, Immigration & Idaho’s Free-Market Case

This episode runs a conservative, free-market lens over the issues shaping Idaho now: the spread of flock-camera surveillance and the Fourth Amendment questions it raises, a bill to shield Monsanto and Bayer from Roundup lawsuits, the fight over vaccine liability and health freedom, and the debate over COVID’s origins. From there it builds a sustained economic case — Adam Smith versus Marx, why business...
