Free the Economy podcast: Real-world economics with Paul Mueller
In this week’s episode we cover spiraling health care costs, reforming state-level regulations, and how to keep asset managers accountable to shareholders. Our interview is with Paul Mueller, senior research fellow at the American Institute for Economic Research and host of the podcast The Economist Next Door. We talk about teaching economics, debunking myths, applying theory to the real world, and seeing virtue and liberty at work together.
