Do Government Spending and Tax Rebates Stimulate Growth? 18.12.2008 1:00:35
President-elect Obama and other politicians are urging a massive expansion in government spending, ostensibly to help the economy recover. This Keynesian endeavor is supposed to boost growth by “priming the pump” by means of circulating extra money through the economy. Yet the notion that bigger government leads to more growth is theoretically suspect: any money that the government “injects” into...

The Price of Everything: A Parable of Possibility and Prosperity 01.12.2008 1:14:30
Purchase at Amazon George Will writes in Newsweek , "Improbable as it might seem, perhaps the most important fact for a voter or politician to know is: No one can make a pencil.

If you read Russell Roberts's The Price of Everything: A Parable of Possibility and...
Gun Control on Trial 24.11.2008 1:10:55
