Million Dollar Stories with Mike Fallat

Mike interviews Anthony Davies
In this insightful episode of Million Dollar Stories, Mike Fallat sits down with best-selling author Antony Davies to discuss his eye-opening book, Cooperation and Coercion.

Davies, along with co-author James R. Harrigan, presents a compelling guide to understanding the dynamics of society and government. They argue that human interactions boil down to two fundamental types: cooperation and coercion. This distinction sheds light on a wide array of societal issues, from minimum wage laws and taxes to gun control and government regulations.

Davies explains how recognizing these two modes of interaction can transform your perspective on the world. He emphasizes that while coercion is sometimes necessary—even in democracies where we must abide by certain rules for the sake of social harmony—cooperation is ultimately the cornerstone of human happiness and progress.

Join Mike and Antony as they delve into the myth-busting insights of Cooperation and Coercion, offering listeners a fresh, comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms that drive our society. This conversation promises to be a thought-provoking journey into the principles that shape our lives and the importance of fostering cooperation to improve our collective well-being.

Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the balance between coercion and cooperation and how it impacts everything from public policies to everyday interactions.
