    E256: IVF or IMF w/ Jason Smith

    Sean sits down with Los Angeles-based Antifada political economy correspondent, Jason Smith of the Brooklyn Rail, to discuss demographic decline, a hot button issue relatively untouched by the Marxist left.
    Why has fertility gone up in the past? Why has it gone down in the developed world? What do Marx, Adam Smith and Keynes have to say about this phenomenon? Why has the potential for population decline made the capitalists so crazy?

Best Libertarian podcast yet!

Love the show. -1 star because of “preview” episodes

Joseph LB ,

Not interesting or informative

These guys are really ignorant about actual history and culture. I’m not really against their politics but they speak really authoritatively about things they clearly don’t understand at all. It’s not flattering

GinoBoyee ,

I learned Soooo much

Thanks for all the podcasts y’all put out. I learn so much about communism. Especially enjoyed the Toontown story.
You and RevLeft are the best!
