#econtalk, with psuedo intellectual #russroberts is a great insight into how right wing econonic theory morphs into being an apologist for weird right-wing causes.

Excellent #economics #podcast :
Michael Munger on Industrial Policy
Economist and political scientist Michael Munger of Duke University talks about industrial policy with #EconTalk host Russ Roberts. Munger argues that in a democracy, the default outcome for industrial policy is crony capitalism--attempts to improve on that outcome either by appointing experts or eliminating cronyism are going to fail for political reasons.
