Yeah, I'm feeling it.

>> No.15034041

>>15034020
Sowell & walter e williams
Also, friedmans free to choose series is one of the most comprehensive introductions to liberal theory

Is it worth knowing about keynesian economics?

>> No.15034060

>>15034053
Yes, know that it's based on poor non-free market assumptions. Hayek it the counterpoint to keynes.

>> No.15034067

>>15034060
Can you recommend me any videos or books?

>> No.15034138

>>15034053
no. Keynesian economics has been a failure that relies on the false assumptions of humans being universalistic rational, are an infinite resources and that nurture comes before nature. The Boomer bulge was the only thing that made it viable.

>> No.15034154

>>15034138
As a reference point though. To understand part of the history of economics?

>> No.15034172

>>15034154
No, it doesn't even make sense from a historical point of view to waste time on Keynesianism.

>> No.15034173

>>15034067
Free to chose series is enough for a start, the episodes are 50% analogies & 50% debates with other eco factions. Just dont skip the last part, that's what gives you insight into other's fallacies and convictions.

100% full of shit and only appeals to psuedo-intellectual, sheltered suburbanites in their teens and 20s

None if you want to learn how the economy really works.

Why

>> No.15034962

Friedman is fine but he's primarily just a half-baked rediscovering of things which were discovered a century before him, but he muddles them with new-age anti-Economics

>> No.15034965

Need to be able to explain what's wrong with it.

Basic Economics - Thomas Sowell
The Road to Serfdom - Frederich Hayek

>>15034053
Yes but only to realize how much of shills they are.
Keynsianism is nothing more than the establishment propaganda to gain more political power.

>> No.15035125

>>15034889
Mises is a meme.
Milton's negative income tax is the only solution to wealth inequality that is viable

>> No.15035393

>>15035125
A non-equal distribution of wealth is not a problem, so it needs no solution.

Wealth inequality is not a fault of the market, it is one of its best products.
