I have a new podcast, “The John Stossel Interviews.”
I built my entire career shrinking news stories down to 5 or 10 minute segments because that’s usually my attention span.
But since I’ve started my online network, Stossel TV, I’ve learned something…many of you want longer conversations.
That’s what I’ll be posting here.
You can listen on the website or your favorite podcast platform.
After 40+ years of reporting, I now understand the importance of limited government and personal freedom. Subscribe to this show, and you’ll get extended interviews with newsmakers and people who I think are interesting or have something important to say.
Politicians say they can “fix” the economy.But economists Friedrich Hayek and Ludwig von Mises pointed out how government “fixes” lead to bigger problems.Hayek and Mises predicted the fall of the Soviet Union. They warned that centrally planned economies fail.But today, socialism is popular again. New York and Seattle have elected socialist mayors.Many politicians still believe that government can manage the economy—an idea popularized by economist John Maynard Keynes.Keynes was revered. Politicians love his arguments.But Hayek and Mises warned that government intervention leads to inflation, instability, and boom-bust cycles.They were right.In this podcast, Ryan McMaken of the Mises Institute explains why we should read Hayek and Mises today.
