In a recent appearance on a leading podcast, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre warned that supporters of socialism have a contradictory view of human nature that can eventually lead to a reduction in human freedom.
Supporters of socialism believe humans are “wretched, self-interested, greedy” when they’re in the private economy, but are “angels” when they work on behalf of the government, Poilievre said April 2 on The Diary of a CEO podcast, which has 15.6 million subscribers on YouTube.
