Capitalism Is the Antidote to Poverty | Guest: Antonella Marty | Ep 147

Matt Kibbe sits down with Antonella Marty, associate director of PR and influencer relations at Atlas Network, to talk about Latin America’s struggles with socialism, nationalism, and organized crime. It’s a frustrating and tragic situation because we know that free markets and light regulation will lead to less poverty and more opportunity, but the governments of countries like Cuba, Venezuela, and Argentina keep making the same mistakes over and over again. Meanwhile, politicians and intellectuals in America continue to admire dictators like Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez, to the point of even wanting to bring their ideas to our own shores.

  • Wow, Antonella is one outrageously intelligent, well versed person!!! Thanks so much for introducing her to us Matt. What great questions and subsequent conversations. You have so many great guests, but Antonella really stands out. It seems any time you have a guest who grew up in that “system” or relatives that still live in it, they provide such a foundational viewpoint of what liberty really is and the results of its absence. Martha Bueno’s podcast was similar in this regard. Please have Antonella on again – maybe monthly!
