Kurt Richebächer, Economist Exraordinaire
My mentor and he from whom I learned 90% of what I know about economics today. A truly remarkable man. I was very lucky to come across Richebächer just when I needed him. Of course I had to “unlearn” much of what I had acquired hitherto. An analysis of his prescient writings from the 90s and early 2000s. Ways in which the government is closing in on your freedom with the unswerving support of the media. Many examples of how the state is encroaching on your liberty. Pessimism is growing at all levels. Why isn’t the unemployment situation receiving more attention? All official energy is focused on protecting the special interests. The consequences of consumers failing to consume.
