Public economics

And so we have to just keep after it and persecute it almost or constantly be writing essentially negative stories about what government does.

I got a Stanford fellowship in the middle of my career and took this course called Public Sector Economics from a terrific economist named Stiglitz, Nobel Prize winning guy.

And it really opened my eyes as to how the best thing going in the world is civil liberties and liberal democracies that actually had higher taxes and more government that provided for a more equitable distribution of the resources that we all produce.

And it was just really eye-opening to get into that space the details of what's working in the world and which countries has the better people who are better off.
