Episode 8 - Introduction to Economics Part 4 of 7 - Murray N Rothbard

Introduction to Economics: A Private Seminar with Murray N. Rothbard Costs are always ex ante. There are no such things as social costs or social benefits. Costs are determined by how much entrepreneurs think consumers will pay. Costs are not determined by supply and demand. Nobody waits for costs to raise prices. Rothbard does not believe in cost curves. Antitrust suits are often filed by one set of competitors trying to eliminate another set. Additionally, antitrust suits are money making rackets for lawyers. Interest is not just a loan; it is a time preference. Usury laws misunderstood interest.

Rothbard. We curate content on the www.ReadRothbard.com site including books, lectures, articles, speeches, and we make a weekly podcast based on his free-market approach to economics. Our focus is on education and how advancement in technology improves the living standards of the average person. The Read Rothbard Podcast is all about Maximum Freedom. We look at movies and current events from a Rothbardian Anarchist perspective. If it's voluntary, we're cool with it. If it's not, then it violated the Non-Aggression Principle and Property Rights - the core tenants of Libertarian Theory - and hence - human freedom.
