You mean big business is good, contributes to our general welfare, and is not generally guilty--with notable exceptions--of all of the charges made against it? That's the argument libertarian economist Tyler Cowen makes in his book Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero (St. Martins, 2019) Most NBN listeners will raise an eyebrow to that claim, but most of those same NBN listeners are up for a good back-and-forth on the virtues and demerits of our market system. And to that end, being familiar with Cowen's arguments--made in this book and his many other publications and platforms--is very useful. The shift in the reputational balance between government and big business as a result of the Covid-19 crisis is another reason to consider Cowen's argument. Daniel Peris is Senior Vice President at Federated Investors in Pittsburgh. Trained as a historian of modern Russia, he is the author most recently of Getting Back to Business: Why Modern Portfolio Theory Fails Investors. You can follow him on Twitter @HistoryInvestor or at http://www.strategicdividendinvestor.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Why is Australia's economic growth grinding to a halt while the US is going gangbusters? Might it have something to do with cutting red tape and reducing taxes? This week your hosts Scott Hargreaves and Dr Chris Berg are joined by the IPA's Director of Research, Daniel Wild, and special guest Dr Patrick McLaughlin, Director of Policy Analytics at the Washington DC based Mercatus Center. They'll be tackling everything from a new tool being adopted by US and Canadian Governments to tackle Red Tape (RegData), the impact Trump has made on restraining the US bureaucracy, and whether artificial intelligence means robots will displace humans (1:54-43:16) as well as diving into culture picks including the new Steven Soderbergh film The Laundromat, Ian Mclean's Why Australia Prospered, Neal Stephenson's sci-fi classic The Diamond Age and Tyler Cowen's Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero.

Polymath and economist Tyler Cowen (Holbert L. Harris Professor at GMU) joins Steve and Corey for a wide-ranging discussion. Are books just for advertising? Have blogs peaked? Are podcasts the future or just a bubble? Is technological change slowing? Is there less political correctness in China than the US? Tyler's new book, an apologia for big business, inspires a discussion of CEO pay and changing public attitudes toward socialism. They investigate connections between populism, stagnant wage growth, income inequality and immigration. Finally, they discuss the future global order and trajectories of the US, EU, China, and Russia.Resources Transcript Personal Website Marginal Revolution [Blog] Conversations with Tyler [Podcast] Tyler Cowen | Bloomberg Opinion Columnist Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero

Tyler Cowen is an economist and the author of "Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero." This book is meant to help calm your nerves. He says, "I think we're in a grumpy time period. People are upset at politicians, at Congress, somewhat at the church, the media, there’s a loss of faith in many institutions. There’s a sense that whatever is perceived as having power has to be taken down and I think big business is caught up in that... I thought I would just write down the things about big business that no one else was saying." It's sort of a contrarian book... "which ought not to be contrarian.” Also, I have a new book, "The Side Hustle Bible." It's a collection of 177 proven ways to make extra income. And I'm giving it away for free to my listeners.

Tyler Cowen, professor of economics, blogger at marginalrevolution.com, columnist for Bloomberg, host of Conversations with Tyler and author of numerous books returns to the Not Unreasonable Podcast to talk about his latest book, Big Business: a Love Letter to An American Anti-Hero. All too rarely do you get a tour of how incredibly strong the evidence is that everyday truths are what they are: big business actually exists for a reason because it mostly does exactly what we need: provide goods and services at affordable prices with reasonably good service. What's more is that big business is the source of all kinds of benefits to America and to human society generally. It's even better than you think! In the show we cover:- where businesses fit into the social intuition of the human mind- similarities between how we treat famous people and big business and what another of Tyler's books, *What Price Fame* can teach us about big business- What is good management and what effects does management have on employees?- How the book is an American book and how it is NOT a Chinese book- Crony capitalism doesn't exist here, but where might it exist in the world?- Wall Street and Financial Dark Matter- How Tyler views the firmAll this and much more! See show notes at notunreasoanble.com

Pete and James give us their winners and losers from the Coalition's boilover election victory, discuss the wonderful state of Idaho that has removed its entire regulatory code and review the leaked email The Guardian sent to its writers urging them to ramp up the alarm on climate change (like, even more). We talk to economist Tyler Cowen of the world famous Marginal Revolution blog and author of new book, Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero, about the virtues of big business, why the free market is good for culture and how to convince young people to choose freedom (23:06 to 42:06). We then talk to IPA Director of Communications Evan Mulholland to review the predictions he made about the election at the start of the campaign (42:12 to 1:02:13).

Tyler Cowen joins us to discuss his new book; Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero. Throughout the conversation, Trevor and Aaron ask Tyler about crony capitalism, how Trump engages with big businesses, and the role of CEO’s. Cowen believes that big businesses are actually given a pretty unfair reputation as they create much more value than they are given credit for.Why is big business coming under heavier fire recently? How big is “big business”? Do CEO’s cheat more or less than others? Do you people like going to work and should they? How should big businesses interact with the federal government? How big is the finance world and is it too big? Why is a healthy financial sector important? If big business is good, why is it widely unliked?Further Reading:Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero, written by Tyler CowenConscious CapitalismBig Business Isn’t Big Politics, written by Tyler CowenMarginal RevolutionRelated Content:Why We’re Too Complacent, Free Thoughts PodcastHow Taxation Affects Income Inequality, Free Thoughts PodcastIs Capitalism Pro-Business?, Learn Liberty video with Steven Horwitz See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this episode, economics professor Tyler Cowen discusses his new book "Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero."

Tyler Cowen is the New York Times bestselling author of the Great Stagnation and writer of a daily blog called Marginal Revolution. He holds the Holbert L. Harris Chair in Economics at George Mason University, writes as a Bloomberg Opinion columnist, and hosts a popular discussion series called Conversations with Tyler where he interviews leading thinkers of our time. Today we're excited to talk with Tyler Cowen about his new book entitled, Big Business: A Love Letter to an American Anti-Hero. Welcome back to TPI’s podcast, Two Think Minimum. It's Thursday, May 2, 2019, and I’m Scott Wallsten, President and Senior Fellow at the Technology Policy Institute. I am joined today by Sarah Oh, TPI Senior Fellow and a former PhD student of Tyler’s at George Mason University. I will let Sarah start the discussion of his new book!

Big business has become a villain not just to the progressive left but also to the populist right and even to many libertarians, who think they see cronyism everywhere. Lost amid this climate of condemnation is a sober assessment of the true record of big business in improving our lives. Tyler Cowen gives us precisely that assessment: he is frank about the moral faults of big business, but he overwhelms us with arguments in its favor that most people have never heard. Result: an excellent book and episode.
