Ep. 42: The Dangers of Comfort - part 1

from Expat Phyles · host Christian Nix

The evidence is overwhelming... Human beings cannot handle excessive comfort. What was the actual moment the US departed from its opportunity to be the shining city on a hill? I mark the 1890s—specifically, the Spanish-American War when the US kicked Spain out of the Americas.Why?  The decision to embark on the road to empire is incommensurate with freedom at home. I understood this by instinct when I was about 12 years old. The wars of occupation of the last 25 years were a warm-up for the main event - where the US government will be using those tools and skills against its own people.The effort it takes to look for liberty is worth it. If you want help designing your own international lifestyle, check out the X Plan Community - for just $1: Use the coupon code, "1DOLLAR"https://www.goxplan.com/letter-from-tain/I created The Expat Phyles to show you the world of options that exist outside your home country.
