HARRIS/WALZ CAMPAIGN ADVANCING PRICE CONTROLS: WHAT ALWAYS GOES WRONG? 4/4: Samuelson Friedman: The Battle Over the Free Market. by Nicholas Wapshott . https://www.amazon.com/Samuelson-Friedman-Battle-Over-Market-ebook/dp/B08589Z7M9/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=Nicholas+Wapshott+%2B+samuelson&qid=1627690920&s=digital-text&sr=1-1 From the author of Keynes Hayek, the next great duel in the history of economics. In 1966 two columnists joined Newsweek magazine. Their assignment: debate the world of business and economics. Paul Samuelson was a towering figure in Keynesian economics, which supported the management of the economy along lines prescribed by John Maynard Keynes's General Theory. Milton Friedman, little known at that time outside of conservative academic circles, championed “monetarism” and insisted the Federal Reserve maintain tight control over the amount of money circulating in the economy. In Samuelson Friedman, the author and journalist Nicholas Wapshott brings narrative verve and puckish charm to the story of these two giants of modern economics, their braided lives and colossal intellectual battles. Samuelson, a forbidding technical genius, grew up a child of relative privilege and went on to revolutionize macroeconomics. He wrote the best-selling economics textbook of all time, famously remarking "I don't care who writes a nation's laws—or crafts its advanced treatises—if I can write its economics textbooks." His friend and adversary for decades, Milton Friedman, studied the Great Depression and with Anna Schwartz wrote the seminal books The Great Contraction and A Monetary History of the United States. Like Friedrich Hayek before him, Friedman found fortune writing a treatise, Capitalism and Freedom, that yoked free markets and libertarian politics in a potent argument that remains a lodestar for economic conservatives today. In Wapshott's nimble hands, Samuelson and Friedman's decades-long argument over how—or whether—to manage the economy becomes a window onto one of the longest periods of economic turmoil in the United States. As the soaring economy of the 1950s gave way to decades stalked by declining prosperity and "stagflation," it was a time when the theory and practice of economics became the preoccupation of politicians and the focus of national debate. It is an argument that continues today. SEPTEMBER 16, 1920 WALL STREET BOMBING

They also delve into topics such as energy policies, hate speech legislation, monetary history, and property investment. Smallbone shares apprehensions over the UK government's handling of protests and free speech inconsistencies, touching on the complexity of defining offensive content. He emphasizes the significance of planning ahead, using the analogy of food shopping and dinner planning for strategic life decisions, and shares his personal experience living in Mexico. The conversation then focuses on energy policies and their potential impact on costs, with Smallbone expressing concern over the UK's reliance on imported energy and the government's renewable energy focus versus nuclear power for base load energy. He criticizes the halting of oil and gas licenses in Scotland and advocates for nuclear energy as a sustainable solution for achieving energy independence and security. Smallbone also discusses his frustrations with societal prioritization of eco-friendliness over practicality, using England's lack of grid infrastructure as an example. He challenges negative perceptions of nuclear power and emphasizes the importance of being well-informed about energy systems and subsidies.

He encourages listeners to study financial history and advocates for owning gold, silver, and potentially Bitcoin as a means of protection against potential monetary crises and inflation.

Why do banks suck? Banks suck is the reason we started this bankless thing. Not that banks are all bad but they take too much and give to little. They need to be disrupted. We brought Mel Mattison, author of Quoz, and he's very clear on what's wrong with banks. They've become too centralized, unbalanced, short-sighted, corrupt. Power has tilted away from the people and into the hands of a central banking cabal. The relationship between sovereign governments and private banks has become an unholy alliance. ------

Welcome to The Bitcoin Layer, where we bring you research, analysis, and education for all things bitcoin and macro. In this episode, Nik is joined by Bitcoin researcher David Seroy. David explains why a type of cryptography called "zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs" has the potential to bring scaling to Bitcoin. David argues that Lighting Network isn't enough by itself as a layer 2, and that ZK Rollups, sidechains, and BitVM might bring additional users to Bitcoin. He believes that in order to build a Bitcoin-based financial system and avoid excessive banking leverage, Bitcoin must add expressive transactions to its arsenal.

Welcome to The Bitcoin Layer, where we bring you research, analysis, and education for all things bitcoin and macro. In this episode, Nik explores the path to $100,000 bitcoin by explaining why the Fed will be forced to monetize debt. By presenting trends in the Fed's balance sheet, total Treasury debt, and debt in global banking systems, we conclude that the ability for central banks to create liabilities to purchase government bonds will lead to a wave of debt monetization in the future. Finally, we look at the chart of bitcoin to project historic trends four years into the future. New YouTube videos M/W/F — New Substack posts T/R/S The Bitcoin Layer is brought to you by River.

In this episode, Nik is joined by Andrew Poelstra, head of research at Blockstream. Andrew presents his argument for Bitcoin covenants and why he believes introducing OP_CAT via soft fork is a sensible first step. In a fascinating dive into bitcoin's cryptography and inner workings, Andrew teaches us about vault construction and rate limiting, why he believes OP_CAT as a soft fork is low risk, and some of the greater implications of covenants on Bitcoin.
