How to Think Like an Economist | Peter Tulip

Should Michael Jordan mow his own lawn? What is the role of the Reserve Bank? Is liberalism "right-wing"?

Robert Forsyth interviews CIS Chief Economist, Peter Tulip, a "classical liberal" thinker otherwise known as a "mainstream economist".

Throughout the conversation Peter distinguishes liberalism from conservatism and argues that is it usually better to have the government out of the way. He points out that good intentions have nothing to do with good outcomes (just ask North Korea), and laments that the general public does not think like economists.
