Tucker Carlson is far more interesting sans bow-tie. He demands that we establish permanent bases in Iraq and challenges the notion that Iraqis deserve to be free. He proposes that the popular notion that promoting (and paying for) free societies make us safer is utopian nonsense.

Sadly, neither of the guests answer this question decisively.

Iraqis — all socieites for that matter — deserve to be free. If our wealth and prosperity relies on the poverty and suffering and the rest of the world, then we are no better than our slave-owning predecessors: we simply outsourced our slavery onto a global scale.
