Chris Calton links California's housing crisis to three books published in the 1960s that spawned three ideological movements — the democratization of urban planning, the politicization of environmentalism, and the no-growth movement — each of which handed activists and bureaucrats new tools to block development and destroy private property rights one permit hearing at a time.Recorded in San Diego, California, on April 25, 2026.

Rome didn't fall to barbarians. It fell to its own emergency powers — temporary controls that became permanent, rational responses that slowly hollowed out the empire from within. This is the pattern no one talks about.In 284 AD, Diocletian inherited an empire in total crisis — 26 emperors in 50 years, currency debased to near-worthlessness, borders collapsing on every front. His response was brilliant, logical, and ultimately catastrophic. Price controls. Tax reform. A doubled bureaucracy. Emergency powers that were never designed to expire. Every solution worked in the short term and destroyed something essential in the long term. The small farmers disappeared. The tax base collapsed. The military went from Roman legions to foreign mercenaries. And the emergency? It became the operating system.In this episode, we trace the full mechanism — from Diocletian's reforms through Constantine's strategic pivot to the final quiet dissolution of the Western Empire in 476. Not as a story of barbarian invasion, but as a system that consumed itself through rational crisis management.This is The Roman Pattern. History doesn't repeat, but it rhymes.Chapters:0:00 — The Emergency That Never Ended1:20 — 26 Emperors in 50 Years2:30 — The Coins Tell the Real Story3:25 — Diocletian's Impossible Inheritance4:00 — The Tetrarchy: Emergency Architecture4:48 — Price Controls and Why They Always Fail6:00 — The Tax System That Killed the Middle Class7:58 — When the Emperor Became a God9:33 — The Bureaucracy Trap10:50 — Laws Nobody Could Understand11:44 — Borders Become an Economic Problem13:18 — The Federate Deal: Outsourcing Defense14:11 — Adrianople: A System Failure, Not a Battle15:02 — The Death Spiral: Money, Power, Borders17:37 — The Loop Closes18:02 — Constantine Extends the Machine19:59 — Christianity as Emergency Policy20:39 — The Western Empire Dissolves24:12 — Remove the Names.

3. Economist John Cochrane warns that government subsidies for high gas prices compound oil shocks into inflation. Comparing current trends to 1979, he argues that price controls lead to shortages, while free-market incentives are necessary to encourage production and efficient consumption.

PREVIEW FOR LATER. Guest: John Cochrane. Cochrane discusses economic impacts of oil price shocks. He warns that political interference like price controls and taxes fails to increase supply, instead causing shortages, gas lines, and inefficient resource distribution. (1)XERXES THE FIRST OF PERSIA

China's recent emergency oil price control, the first since 2013, highlights surging gas prices and a broader oil crisis. This move, capping oil prices due to rapid increases, is a significant development for the nation's economy. This action is viewed as a highly positive macroeconomic factor for the Chinese electric vehicles (EVs) industry, indicating a pivotal shift towards sustainable energy solutions. NIO Mirratery raising capital from BOND INVESTORS. Xiaomis NEW SU7 isn't selling as fast as the OLD one!China has implemented its first emergency oil price control since 2013, a significant move to manage rising gasoline prices.

[3:24] Adam Haman Hello. Isn't technology just hilarious? I guess so. [3:29] Tyrone You got big plans for your 200th episode celebration and then all of a sudden nothing works. [3:36] Adam Haman I still don't see it on my YouTube, but if you see it on yours, I believe somebody is seeing it somewhere. [3:42] Tyrone Yes, somebody is seeing it somewhere. Well, I guess it's just going to be you and me. [3:48] Adam Haman This is kind of how the last one was. Well, hey, we made it. Congratulations, sir. Even if nobody's seeing this, I don't know. [4:06] Tyrone We do have a couple of guests waiting in the waiting room. Maybe they know. But first, we allow some of these bozos on to come celebrate with us. Congratulations, sir. It's number 200. I didn't know if we would make it. Cheers, my friend. [4:23] Adam Haman When we started this little project two years ago, can you believe that? [4:29] Tyrone It's crazy. Oh, you're getting dinged.

[5:57] Tyrone Mr. Kinsella, I know we've never met, but nice to meet you virtually, sir.

Price Controls Don't Work -- Not Even For President Trump by Ron Paul Liberty Report

President Trump's recent embrace of economic proposals run sharply against free-market orthodoxy, exploring three headline-grabbing ideas: capping credit-card interest rates, banning institutional investors from buying single-family homes, and restricting dividends and stock buybacks by defense contractors. Why is a Republican president is advancing policies more commonly associated with progressive populism? Drawing on economic history, constitutional law, and real-world market behavior, Epstein argues that price controls, capital restrictions, and politicized contracting consistently backfire, harming consumers, workers, and innovation alike. The conversation situates Trump's proposals within a broader populist strategy, assesses the political incentives behind them, and warns that ignoring basic economic lessons risks repeating some of the most durable policy failures of the past.

The so-called “Trump economic miracle” isn’t a talking point — it’s a real, measurable reality, no matter how hard the media tries to deny it. While Washington reflexively reaches for gimmicks and control levers, President Trump has been proving something far more powerful: real prosperity comes from free markets, not federal micromanagement. Lower taxes, deregulation, energy dominance, and unapologetic America-First trade policies are doing exactly what they’re designed to do — ignite growth without artificial stimulus or central-planner schemes. On today’s episode of Stinchfield, we lay out why Trump must stay the course — and why he should not listen to voices inside his own administration pushing non-free-market ideas. Credit card price controls? That’s government setting prices. A $200 billion expansion of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac housing interventions? Did we learn nothing from the 2008 housing collapse? Prohibiting investors from buying housing only distorts supply further, and Uncle Sam taking equity stakes in Intel or defense firms crosses a dangerous line into state-run capitalism. The foundation for growth is already set. Capital is moving. Confidence is rising. Productivity is coming back online. The lesson is simple and timeless: when government gets out of the way, Americans build, innovate, and win. We don’t need bailouts, price controls, or Washington picking winners and losers. This is what real economic leadership looks like — trusting free people instead of controlling markets. Don’t interfere. Don’t panic. Just let it happen. Trump is on the right track, and the results are speaking for themselves.

This class takes us inside the Jewish wine economy of earlier centuries. We will see communities enforcing price ceilings, outlawing seller collusion, and appointing assessors to protect community members from being overcharged. In some places, the system became so aggressively strict: monopoly-style selling rights, blind tastings, barrels sealed by wine assessors, community-owned measuring jugs, and stiff fines for anyone who tried to sell wine off the books.

In this special 2025 U.S. Policy Highlights edition of the Vital Health Podcast, we look back at our most important discussions on the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and its ripple effects across drug development, Medicare, and patient access. Over the past year, the biopharma industry and the broader healthcare system have undergone a period of rapid change as new rules surrounding drug pricing reshape how therapies are developed, financed, and delivered. In a landscape where policies are still being interpreted and adjusted, and where the long-term impact on innovation and access is far from certain, this episode serves as a year-end guide to what has changed and how to think about the road ahead. Throughout 2025, we paired our research with a series of podcast episodes where host Duane Schulthess sat down with industry leaders. In this highlights episode, we revisit several of those conversations: Douglas Holtz-Eakin: “Indications are going to be deeply affected by the IRA” Steve Usdin: Tariffs, Price Controls, & Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) VT’s Grumpies Talk IRA with Virginia Acha Key Topics: Pill Penalty: How the shorter negotiation window for small molecule medicines relative to biologics is changing the calculus for pursuing oral therapies in areas such as cardiovascular disease, neurodegeneration, and other chronic conditions. Part D Redesign: Why moving more liability to plans is driving new premium and coverage tradeoffs, influencing which products stay on formularies, and raising questions about access in rural and underserved areas. Early Stage Investment: What our data suggest about the pullback in trial starts and funding for projects most exposed to IRA mechanics, and how that is influencing company formation, licensing strategies, and pipeline mix. PBMs, Vertical Integration, & Biosimilars: How consolidated intermediaries and payer-owned biosimilar strategies interact with IRA price setting, rebate flows, and the outlook for generic and biosimilar competition. Patient Advocacy & Real World Impact: What older adults, cancer patients, and rare disease communities are already experiencing as coverage rules change, cost-sharing is redesigned, and uncertainty grows around long-term treatment availability. Policy Paths Forward: Ideas from our guests for adjusting timelines, refining negotiation rules, and protecting incentives for follow-on and orphan indications while still improving affordability for patients. Opinions expressed are those of the speakers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Credit Card Interest Rate Caps Would Harm Low-Income Borrowers: Colleague Veronique de Rugy criticizes proposals by Senators Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez to cap credit card interest rates at 10 percent, arguing price controls will force companies to reduce risk, ultimately denying credit to the low-income borrowers the bill aims to protect SP 1954.

Kinsella on Liberty Podcast: Episode 469. This is my appearance on Adam Haman's podcast and Youtube channel, Haman Nature (Haman Nature substack), episode HN 149, “Free The DRUGS! Stephan KINSELLA Counters Economist Alex TABARROK On Price Controls | Hn 149” (recorded June 25,  2025). Tabarrok seems to be generally pro-free market and an Austrian or fellow traveler. However, although he sometimes criticizes existing IP law, he is not opposed to intellectual property (IP), unlike all the cool Austro-libertarians. (( The Death Throes of Pro-IP Libertarianism. )) And he often proposes changes to IP law—sometimes outrageously goofy ones, such as his truly insane idea of replacing the patent system with $3.5 trillion worth of taxpayer subsidies (if you take his logic for a taxpayer funded "medical innovation price fund" to its limit apply it to all forms of patented innovation and other forms of IP like copyright) (( $30 Billion Taxfunded Innovation Contracts: The “Progressive-Libertarian” Solution; Libertarian Favors $80 Billion Annual Tax-Funded “Medical Innovation Prize Fund; What's Worse: $80 Billion or $30 Million?. )) or based on simplistic assertions or confusions like the idea that we can empirically know that we are on the "wrong side" of the optimal patent term length on his ridiculous "Tabarrok Curve." (( Tabarrok: Patent Policy on the Back of a Napkin; The Overwhelming Empirical Case Against Patent and Copyright; Optimal Patent and Copyright Term Length. )) So even though he's not against IP and thus not a very good libertarian, and he's not a Misesian since he seems to think utility is cardinal, measurable, and knowable, (( "The Problem with Intellectual Property" (2025), Part III.B.2. )) and he's not an IP law expert either, he keeps trotting out proposals to “reform” IP, such as, I guess, banning free trade or urging that the US engage in IP imperialism to twist the arms of other countries like Australia (see below) to adopt the stronger US patent protections that Tabarrok seems to want to reform.

Shownotes, links, grok summary, and transcript below. https://youtu.be/gNRsjF3UXT4?si=2T9-4aE3cMPRoMD1 GROK SUMMARY: In the Haman Nature episode featuring patent attorney and libertarian legal theorist Stephan Kinsella, hosted by Adam Haman, the discussion centers on the high cost of prescription drugs in the United States and the misconceptions surrounding proposed solutions, including critiques of arguments made by economist Alex Tabarrok. Kinsella challenges the notion that former President Trump's executive order would effectively lower drug prices, arguing that the issue stems from a complex interplay of government regulations, subsidies, and intellectual property (IP) laws, particularly pharmaceutical patents. He disputes the idea that other countries "free ride" on a supposed U.S. "free market" system, emphasizing that the U.S. pharmaceutical industry is far from a free market due to patent-driven monopolies that inflate prices and restrict competition. Kinsella's critique, informed by his extensive work on IP (e.g., his discussions in the Kinsella on Liberty Podcast, Episode 469, and articles on c4sif.org), highlights how these monopolies distort market dynamics and prevent natural price equalization through arbitrage across borders. The conversation also addresses Tabarrok's arguments, as discussed in his interview with Bob Murphy, particularly the concept of the "Tabarrok Curve," which posits an optimal level of IP protection to maximize innovation. Kinsella rejects this, asserting that pharmaceutical patents are not the definitive case for IP necessity, as they often delay generic drugs, skew research toward profitable rather than essential medicines, and raise costs for consumers. He points to industries like fashion and software,

When politicians intervene in the economy, they often do it in the name of mitigating “greed” or “profiteering.” While they can pass laws regulating prices and the like, they cannot repeal economic laws.

Peter Schiff rebukes Wall Street's false triumph over a China trade deal, dissects Trump's failed tariffs, and criticizes misguided drug pricing policies and questionable gifts from foreign nations.Sign up for a $1/month trial period at https://shopify.com/goldIn this episode of The Peter Schiff Show, Peter Schiff critiques the perceived celebration on Wall Street over a supposed trade deal with China, which he calls 'fake news.' He argues that rather than achieving a deal, President Trump merely rolled back the heavy tariffs he had initially imposed, with no substantial progress or concessions from China. Schiff contends that Trump's moves were a strategic surrender rather than a negotiation victory and attributes market reactions, such as stock rallies and gold price drops, to a relief from avoided economic damages. Schiff also criticizes Trump's populist actions such as advocating for drug price controls and accepting a questionable $400 million jet from Qatar. Schiff concludes by discussing the implications for markets and reiterates his advice on investing in gold and foreign currencies to protect against economic instability.⭐️ Sign up for Peter's most valuable insights at https://schiffsovereign.com
