El Salvador and the elasticity of supply

Many of you have written in and asked what I think of president Bukele throwing all those gang members (and possibly others) in jail without much due process.  I do hope to learn more about this, including possibly with a trip to El Salvador later this year.  In the meantime, I say let’s put aside […]

NOT A LOT OF PEOPLE KNOW THAT

“We do not believe any group of men adequate enough or wise enough to operate without scrutiny or without criticism. We know that the only way to avoid error is to detect it, that the only way to detect it is to be free to inquire.
