#457 – Jennifer Burns: Milton Friedman, Ayn Rand, Economics, Capitalism, Freedom

8707.665 - 8730.251 Jennifer Burns

This is inflation going over 10%, hovering an 8% for basically the whole decade of the 70s, going up and down with extremely elevated rates. And so... The Carter presidency largely falls.
