If you have a spare hour I strongly recommend listening to the latest episode of Econtalk. Russ Roberts interviews Robert Frank, and they talk about markets – how they go right, how they go wrong, and what (if anything) should be done about it. If you like the idea of two people who know what they’re talking about politely discussing the merits of government intervention, then you’ll want to listen to this.
