"If it were in any way possible to grant this right of self-determination to every individual person, it would have to be done. This is impracticable only because of compelling technical considerations, which make it necessary that a region be governed as a single administrative unit." ~ Ludwig von Mises

The final episode of the week was an interview with Dr. Keith Smith of the Surgery Center of Oklahoma. The Daily Decrypt team first found the healthcare facility in 2014 while searching for healthcare with an upfront price tag available for exchange with Bitcoin. The facility is a fine example of functioning free market healthcare which gained notoriety after performing a surgery in exchange for Bitcoin and gold.
