    2024 Election Results | #316

    Recorded after the election but prior to any nominations, the Gwartney team discusses the promises and perils of a second Trump term.  How will this term compare to the previous Trump administration? How did we get here, and where are we going?

    Tarriff Time! | #315

    Russ leads a discussion about Tarriffs: What they are, how they work, and why he doesn't like them. Along the way the team discusses the manner in which other state interventions in the market (such as regulations) generate the demand for tariffs, and what this all means going forward.

    Shouting Fire in a Crowded Theatre | #314

    Exactly what kind of speech does the first amendment protect, and why? There is concerted pressure, both domestically and internationally, to expand the State's ability to regulate speech. Those advocating for these policies justify their proposals by citing the need to combat "hate" and "misinformation."

    AI and Universal Unemployment | #313

    A recent article makes the now familiar claim that AI will render most of the population unemployable.  Rather than advocate for a universal basic income, the author argues that we should use the state to shape the labor market to guarantee employment.  This is a 'jobs program', but for everyone!  Is this really the least-bad option?

    The Psalms | #312

    Peter leads the Gwartney team in fruitful discussion of the Psalms. A rich and rewarding book, The Psalms comprises songs and prayers and prayerful songs, without a single author or viewpoint. How then are we to interpret them?

    Taxes for Transportation? | #311

    Russ recently advised an Arizona municipality that was considering extending a 1-cent sales tax to fund transportation infrastructure such as road maintenance.  Russ advised in favor of extending the tax for another 20 years.  Peter and Justin aren't so sure.  Who is right?  Tune in for the sales pitch!

    Tall Poppy Syndrome | #310

    Tall Poppy Syndrome is the tendency for groups to punish members for their success, or even for aiming at very high achievement.  Once made explicit, it's possible to find tall poppy syndrome all over.  Where did it come from?  Why does this tendency show up in some groups more than others?  What are the effects--both positive and negative--of this tall poppy syndrome?

    Bitcoin: How should I store it? | #309

    Russ details the trials and tribulations of trying to move his bitcoin off of Coinbase and take personal custody of his crypto.  If that sentence didn't make sense to you, tune in as the Gwartney team explains what a hardware wallet is, why many bitcoin enthusiasts recommend keeping your crypto in 'cold storage' and the ways in which the crypto ecosystem has changed over the last decade as industry has anticipated and responded to regulation.
