The Trap
“The series consists of three one-hour programs which explore the concept and definition of freedom, specifically, ‘how a simplistic model of human beings as self-seeking, almost robotic, creatures led to today’s idea of freedom.’ “
I’ve been touting this around a bit after gowns showed it to me. It’s broad, but it’s a good jumping off point for whatever specific issues you’d like to investigate more. I like to pitch it as “a look into the psyche of assholes wielding huge amounts of power & influence, particularly free-market fetishists who like the idea of rational self-interest, and how they came to be.”
