Week Ahead: What Central Banks Say may be More Important than What They Do
There were three outsized moves
last week. Gold had a $135 range on Monday, posted a key downside reversal, and

above $2135. January WTI neared $80 on December 1 and traded below $69 on
December 7, its lowest level in five months. The seven-week slide matches the
longest since July/August 2015. Third, the dollar fell by a little more than 2.1% on December 7 against the...

The Oregon Problem
The Wall Street Journal reported last month that the ballot initiative to decriminalize all drugs in the state of Oregon is failing, and that efforts are underway to recriminalize hard drugs. Mark points out that decriminalizing drug possession does nothing to improve black market production of drugs, which makes drugs much more dangerous to consume. More importantly, it is Oregon's socialist ideology that coddles homelessness and open hard drug...

The Mixed Economy Model Still Disrupts Private Markets
Market processes rely on prices, which are not established by a government decree or by the randomness of the human mind but are instead determined by supply and demand. The consumer’s wants and needs are signaled through prices, which are in turn satisfied by the producers, who want to make a profit. Despite the success of this process, many still believe that government intervention is necessary to help the poor and to provide services that may...

The Myth of the Failure of Capitalism
[This essay was originally published as "Die Legende von Versagen des Kapitalismus" in Der Internationale Kapitalismus und die Krise, Festschrift für Julius Wolf (1932)1
The nearly universal opinion expressed these days is that the economic crisis of recent years marks the end of capitalism. Capitalism allegedly has failed, has proven itself incapable of solving economic problems, and so mankind has no alternative, if it is to survive,...

Krugman’s Bag of Tricks
Ivory Tower economists continue to tell us that the US economy is booming, but consumers disagree. Paul Krugman has a new explanation for the economic gloom: Republicans. In a recent New York Times article, Krugman touts that partisanship and media bias drive a wedge between consumer sentiment and economic reality. But is this actually what’s going on?
Dr. Jonathan Newman is back with Bob to break down Krugman's shifting economic predictions and to...

The Path to True Freedom is Systematic Privatization
Politics in all its variants, particularly the politics of political parties, is the archenemy of freedom, prosperity, and peace. Yet, wherever one looks, more government is invoked as the solution.
Very rare are the voices that claim that a different way is possible. Few speak out in favor of anarchocapitalism and a libertarian social order.
It is quite common nowadays to announce with confidence the verdict that anarchism, a society free of a...

Friedman versus Rothbard
When we think of Milton Friedman and Murray Rothbard, what come to mind first are their contrary views on economics, but I’d like to discuss a different subject that might surprise some of my readers because they don’t associate Friedman with positions on it: American foreign policy. Jennifer Burns’s outstanding new biography Milton Friedman: The Last Conservative (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2023) enables us to grasp more fully the differences...
