After watching the Beatles: Get Back sessions, Cameron Abadi was inspired to dive deeper into the economics of the Beatles versus the Rolling Stones with Adam Tooze. So, rock lovers rejoice, that’s what you’ll get in the second half of Ones and Tooze this week.
But first, Tooze and Abadi dig into the heated online debate over price controls. For those not following, the internet somewhat broke over a Guardian op-ed arguing that price controls could fight inflation. Tooze tempers the hysteria and looks at the historic data.
