Maybe but they should probably be contrasted with some left-wing or centre-left views. Especially when it comes to economics the world is only getting one point of view.

>>8932673
He doesn't really have any, its just a rehash of naive folk economics you'll see on fox news

>>8932673

Read one of his books.
>>
>>8932698
Have you actually read one?
>>
>>8932714

I have indeed.
>>
>>8932717
Then why can't you answer his question?
>>
>>8932761
>why don't you spoon feed him

Read his books.
>>
>>8932766
Which should I read first? Why should I read him and not other political theorists?
>>
>>8932673
Free market will fix it.

Basic Economics is a must read, though I don't agree with everything he has to say on the subject. His writings on why blacks have developed hood culture is a must because the data he collects is quite telling. I don't if it was welfare, but something definitely happened to blacks after Segregation ended.

Barbarians inside the gates and basic economics.

As for why, he makes good points on many different issues and his knowledge on economics is next to none.

>he makes good points on many different issues
lol doesn't everyone claim this? What makes him special?

>his knowledge on economics is next to none.
I think this came out wrong, it sounds like you are saying he has no knowledge of economics when you mean to say none can match his level of knowledge.

>>8932668
I unironically love this man.
It's too bad that he's retiring from his column.
