“ The more we move away from free markets, the worse things become” says economist Don Boudreaux, author of “The Triumph of Economic Freedom.”
Boudreaux explains how government intervention made the Great Depression last longer, caused the Great Recession, and more.
He also debunks myths like the “growing gap” between rich and poor:
“If you look at the data, that growing gap isn’t growing. That gap is due to a statistical illusion.”
In this full interview, we talk about “The Triumph of Economic Freedom” and debunk myths about poverty, AI taking jobs, and the dumb ways politicians claim to “improve” the economy.
