I’m glad to hear that. As a friend and mentor once said, “as famous as he is, Adam Smith is still underrated.” Where should you begin? Shortly after I finished my PhD I went to the Liberty Fund’s “Adam Smith Boot Camp.” It was there that I read The Theory of Moral Sentiments for the first […]

Network Marketing Leverages Relationships and Improves Monitoring
I started this blog in part to earn income through affiliate marketing channels. A lot of companies like Uber, Lyft, Dollar Shave Club, Nozbe, and others offer referral incentives. If you use my Uber or Lyft codes for your first rides, I get a $20 discount on a future ride. If you sign up for […]
Quick Dispatch From Central Florida!

Consider how frequently you hear someone in a firm or a bureau complain that they are under-funded and that they need more resources to complete a mission. Should they get a larger budget? I would venture to say “probably not,” though there are certainly exceptions, because everyone could say “I can do more of the things I […]

My Uber Driver Couldn’t Understand!
I use ride-sharing whenever it’s available. In Orlando recently, I took Lyft from my hotel to the University of Central Florida, where I was speaking on whether capitalism exploits the poor, and I took Uber back to the hotel. I had nice conversations with drivers in both directions (Pedro for Lyft, Eman for Uber). My […]

In addition to my research and classroom teaching, I do a lot of writing by […]
