Technocracy Expert Patrick Wood | AI, Tokenization, and the End of Property Rights in America | 05-08-26

Sam Bushman and Curt Crosby welcome Patrick Wood of www.Technocracy.News to Liberty RoundTable Live for a deep dive into one of the most urgent threats facing America today. Patrick breaks down how technocracy, first designed in 1932, is now being executed through AI, tokenization, and the quiet removal of property rights. They discuss Trump's dramatic flip on cryptocurrency, BlackRock's Larry Fink, and the push to tokenize all assets, the massive Utah data center being forced on communities without consent, and what everyday Americans can do to fight back. Patrick also previews his new book, "The New Economics of Technocracy," and his upcoming presentation at the 2026 John Birch Society Conference in Salt Lake City, June 5 and 6.
