Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla

Adam Swart, founder and CEO of Crowds on Demand, joins Kevin Stolla for a wide-ranging conversation about paid protesters, political advocacy, public persuasion, and the money behind organized political action. Adam explains why he views protests more like advertising than public-opinion polls, why he believes paid participants can sometimes give a voice to people who would otherwise stay home, an...

Trump Accounts, no tax on tips, no tax on overtime, inflation, and self-improvement all have something in common: the question of how much we should rely on government—and how much we should rely on ourselves. In Episode 41 of Vote Your Conscience, Kevin Stolla breaks down Trump Accounts and the new tax breaks for tips and overtime, questioning whether these policies actually help working American...

Episode 40 marks a first for Vote Your Conscience: our first guest interview. Kevin sits down with entrepreneur and political reformer Tom Joseph, founder of Bookminders and founder and treasurer of America’s Main Street Party, to discuss his attempt to build a new way of choosing political candidates outside the traditional two-party nominating system. Tom explains how his experience building a b...

Many people argue that billionaires—and someday trillionaires—should use their wealth to end poverty, homelessness, and world hunger. In this episode, Kevin explores whether that idea is realistic by examining the difference between net worth and cash, how stock valuations create wealth on paper, and why business fortunes can disappear almost overnight. He also asks a broader question: if the fede...

Episode 38: How Much Government Is Enough? Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren have proposed wealth taxes and even government ownership stakes in AI companies. Supporters argue these measures are necessary to combat wealth inequality and fund social programs. I disagree. In this episode, I explain why I believe the real threat to the average American isn't that billionaires have too much money—it'...

Minimum wage is seen as a protection, but I see it as an impediment to personal empowerment. People should be educated on how wages are set and who has to agree upon them. When we take personal responsibility we become empowered. In this video, I give examples for how raising the minimum wage can hurt individuals that otherwise would be employed happily. Check it out and tell me how you feel in th...

You are losing the war on drugs! It has not worked. We need an end to the government tyranny. Adults have a right to put whatever they like into their body. Trying to stop them is futile. With all the punishments of fining people. making them go to rehab, putting them in jail, forcing them into support groups, taking their kids, etc., nothing has worked. Organized crime groups power is ever expand...

Is the minimum wage something the government should be in control of? I don't believe so. Discover why government controls lead to disaster. Slowly eroding our personal sovereignty over generations is how the elite stay in control. Stop the hate, let's come up with solutions. Join me on Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla!!

Welcome to the show!!! On this episode of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla, I talk about my opinion on the presidential debate and cover all the branches of government and how they are supposed to function.

Welcome to the show!!! Episode 32 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla is about the wealth tax, corporate tax and the federal government's power. I believe the wealthy can afford higher taxes, I just don't think that they should have to pay them. They should be using their extra money for good. Paying higher wages, charity, investing in communities, cleaning up their own environmental messes,...

Welcome to the show!!! This episode of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla is all about climate change. Unanswered questions I have. Is the climate a conspiracy?

Join me as I try to understand what...

Welcome to the show!!! Episode 30 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla is all about student loans. I believe there is an easy way to end the student debt crisis and it doesn't involve giving $500 billion to people with student loans. Just allow them to fall under the current bankruptcy laws and repeal the law that has the federal government backing the loans. These two laws would crush future...

Welcome to the show!!! Episode 28 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla is about a tweet that our president, Joe Biden, sent out. I delve deep into the meaning of his tweet.

Listen in and if you enjoy my podcast, please follow us, leave a review...

Welcome to the show!!! The 26th episode of Vote Your Conscience is all about FEAR. I believe that one of the main reasons we can't get a much better world for everyone is because of fear. People are too afraid to make their own decisions in life. Too scared to vote for who they actually want. Too scared of one person being elected over another if they don't vote a certain way. The people that cons...

I have a dream to make a huge impact on the world...

Welcome to the show!!! On episode 23 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla, I discuss how the citizens of the U.S. seem to have no focus and no priorities. We want solutions to every problem and we want them now! Endless demands for the government and businesses. I say, we need to prioritize what the most important issues really are and work on those. If you had to narrow down the most importa...

Welcome to the show!!! On Episode 20 "No Money For The Tax Man" of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla we discuss taxes again. It is a large topic and taxes will be discussed many times in the future, but I wanted to put together a comprehensive look at why my views on taxes and the Federal Government are the way they are. I cover why I want to reduce the amount of money that the government rec...

Welcome to the show!!! Episode 19 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla is "Tax Businesses, Not Individuals". We cover my thoughts on how to reform our income tax system. While I believe there should be no income tax, I'm open to a revenue tax that only businesses pay. This would relieve the tax burden on American citizens and destroy the idea of anyone not paying their fair share. Every busin...

Welcome to the show!!! Thanks for listening! On episode 18 of Vote Your Conscience with Kevin Stolla we discuss, you guessed it, compassion. Not in the way most people think about it though.

We are seemingly allowing other people's feelings to dictate reality instead of allowing...
