Shit its also.slow.mode
Vc general @Existence is identity
Thomas Sowell
isn't he the guy who wrote the book on basic economics
He wrote many books
I love him
There was some video of him on an old TV show facing of with a feminist and it was so beautiful
Hazlitt's economics in one lesson > Sowell's basic bitch commie economics.
I like that he's able to explain the issues in the black community bluntly without being immediately labeled a racist
"basic bitch commie economics" do you know who Thomas Sowell is
he is the furthest you could get from a commie
Thomas Sowell actually started out as a commie.
Check out Walter E Williams. He's good on the black question.
Well if he started out as a commie he clearly isn't one anymore
Most economists do. That's why the undergrad AOC is so socialist.
Sowell ended up a cicago school commie. He's just not an explicit Marxist anymore.
@halfthink haazlitt is who?
Everything the layman needs to know about economics:

I dont like justin trudaue
@halfthink Let me save that and read some books on it
You really want to try and understand the complexities of our economics today, do some research on the end of WWII with special reverence to everything that happened starting with FDR, and his One World principles, leading into the rebuilding of Europe via several economic packages, and the Marshall Plan. That continues into the development of the European Union. All of this happened as a response to the Soviet buildup in Europe.
Thanks
Bretton Woods was an absolute failure.
It's a good thing it failed. The end goal was one world state, we are still heading in that direction tho.
That's where FDR appointed a Russian plant to head the World Bank.
What was Bretton Woods?
Winning the Peace: The Marshall Plan and America's Coming of Age as a Superpower. Nicolaus Mills
We arent going to get a one world state
Hopefully not
Its impossible
Saving a Continent: The Untold Story of the Marshall Plan <- good read by Bruce Jones & Strobe Talbott
@halfthink Do you read any philosophers?
The Mises organization has a lot in their free library halfthink pointed to. A lot of philosophy in there.
I already have some books I want to read on it
Mises himself. Read Liberalism.
He wrote about Rand?
