Appetite for Creative Destruction

Duff McKagan of Guns n’ Roses fame is going to be writing on financial matters at Playboy.com. What makes this more interesting than the simple fact it allowed me to type that last sentence is that Duff has outed himself as a free-marketer. He says:

I do find how money works rather fascinating. Adam Smith, the main person looked at to be the founder of capitalism, was a simple but brilliant economist who had particular ideas on how a free market would take care of itself. The theory of every little niche being filled in the marketplace seems too ‘free’ to actually work…but it has for the most part over the last 240 years. This is a statement made free of politics by the way.

Duff gets my vote for Mayor of Paradise City.
