A little debate broke out on social media when a left-wing progressive mocked the idea that “absolute” standards of living are more important than “relative” ones. To some, what people aspire to is merely “to have a better life than the people around them,” and not “to have a better life.”What is the truth here? And does it matter? If people really are merely concerned with “upping” their neighbors, couldn't we do that pretty easily without driving burdensome things like “progress”?On today's Capital Record, David takes on the reality of human nature and the fundamental aim of economics. Ultimately, we find ourselves back to the Tenth Commandment to resolve one tension, and to the Garden of Eden to resolve another! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Nobel Prize for economics has gone to some serious winners over the years -- Hayek, Friedman, and Mundell come to mind. But the Nobel committee has shamed itself over the years as well (looking at you, Krugman), and more recently seemed to indicate a bias toward so-called economic justice than actual economic productivity and prosperity. That is why this year's winners are an encouragement to those of us who see growth as a moral good, and a rising standard of living for all as dependent on progress, innovation, and growth. It is good for the field of economics when good work is rewarded that explains how the world works, and why. It is far better than rewarding econometrics that explain neither.Show Notes:WSJ article by David Henderson Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In today's episode, I sit down with former federal prosecutor Andy McCarthy, now a columnist at the National Review. He is someone whose legal commentary I've followed closely for years. Andy has consistently offered analysis of the major legal battles shaping American politics. In our conversation, we cover everything from the rise of modern lawfare to the prosecutions of both Donald Trump and his political opponents. It couldn't feel more timely; last week, a federal judge dismissed the criminal cases against former FBI Director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. Andy provides sobering analysis for what all of this means for the future of the justice system. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tune in for a conversation you won't hear anywhere else.
SEASON 4 EPISODE 35: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-BLOCK (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump is now a lame duck. A lame Donald. A lame duck Donald. A lame Donald Duck. I like it. It’s not just that MAGA stood up to him and a GOP/Democratic coalition beat him 427 to 1 on Epstein. It's that that was something even most of the Washington political media industrial complex can understand, can process, can WRITE using the cliches in which they trafficked until Trump and his unprecedented madness came along. This looked all too familiar and they jumped on it with both feet and the same cliché: LAME DUCK. Fortune used it. NBC. Semafor. The National Review. Nate Silver's site asked "Is Trump A Lame Duck?" CNN's went further: "Is Trump A Lame Duck NOW?" It's so bad there was a Politico Lame Duck Listicle! "Seven signs Trump is losing his groove." And then the final nail: “It’s Official: Donald Trump is a lame duck by President”by Chris Cillizza, part of his weekly conversation with Chuck Todd. It's never over til it's over, Yogi, but it's over. B-BLOCK (25:00) SPECIAL COMMENT: I'm the character in The (Latest) Olivia Nuzzi story who gets shot in the first scene, but I still know more about her than almost any outsider and there is a lot to correct on her epically bad book excerpt in Vanity Fair, and the riposte by the more recent ex, Ryan Lizza, who was apparently told by Olivia that I was stalking her at the same time as Olivia was telling me there was a guy in Washington stalking her, named Ryan Lizza. The Nuzzi News is a Doozy and we all lose. This was to be a comeback; now she'll need an entirely new comeback to come back from her come back. And how does Vanity Fair keep her employed after the Mark Sanford accusation made her explanation of her RFK Jr lies into a separate lie? C-BLOCK (1:00:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Trump accuses himself of rigging the 2020 census. It was in July, but Bill O'Reilly insisted that Jeffrey Epstein was prosecuted by Biden and Garland, and refused to correct himself even after he was reminded Epstein died during Trump's first presidency. And Bill Maher says he's giving up touring because people who are half as funny are selling twice as many tickets. Who does he mean? The New York Jets?

Few people exerted as profound an influence on the postwar conservative movement and the “fusionist” project of attempting to align libertarians with traditional conservatives on issues of shared interest as William F. Buckley Jr. The founder and longtime editor of National Review, Buckley hosted the weekly PBS program Firing Line, wrote a syndicated column, and authored roughly 50 books. He also found time to run for mayor of New York City in 1965. He had no real intention of winning but rather hoped to influence the terms of the debate over how the city was governed.Buckley commissioned Sam Tanenhaus to write his biography. The result is the comprehensive Buckley: The Life and the Revolution That Changed America. Please join us on Monday, November 17, a week before what would have been Buckley's 100th birthday, for an online discussion of the book and a man who helped shape public discussion for more than five decades.

Tucker Carlson's lovey-dovey interview with a Holocaust-denying white supremacist named Nick Fuentes caused long-simmering tensions on the far right to boil over into a factional civil war.

In this episode, the political theorist Damon Linker and National Review senior writer Dan McLaughlin trace the history of the conservative movement from William F. Buckley to Ronald Reagan, to Pat Buchanan and Donald Trump.

David devotes this week's Capital Record to the folly of the “game-changing” idea of a 50-year mortgage. He stands within first principles by allowing risk takers to freely transact, but points out the economic reality of how people who believe they get a cheaper house by paying for it over an extra 20 years are, well, wrong.
