I'll also note that he begins his piece by approvingly quoting Shakespeare's "Dick the Butcher," one of the henchmen of Jack Cade and a symbol of the descent of England into anarchy and mob rule; in the play, Cade is basically a Kentish Pol Pot and Dick his thuggish enforcer, who gleefully executes anyone who can read and write (instead of being illiterate like "an honest, plain-dealing man"). Maybe not the most felicitous opening -- but, then, he does essentially advocate for the overthrow of the regulatory state so we can "fearlessly build" with "permissionless innovation" ... Uber. And sidewalk scooters.
