**SPOILERS AHEAD! **

When we last talked about Thanos, we focused on the nature of resources, the value of humanity, and the history of failed overpopulation doomsday proclamations.

This time, we're following up on some of those themes with a deeper discussion of environmentalism and the role wealth creation plays in generating better standards of living for both people and the environment around us, then we shift gears to the concept of "central planning" and explain why Thanos' is no different than countless historical and modern tyrants who believe they can easily plan out the future for billions (or trillions) of people... and what inevitably happens when things don't go their way.
