More like lack of proper enforcement of property laws...

J.K. Galbraith, in the Age of Uncertainty, following some lovely anecdotes about Churchill having coal miners shot etc, uses this decision by Churchill (as Ch/Exchq) to argue that he basically caused the Great Depression and WWII. A nice tip for arguing with your racist uncle for whom genocidal colonialism just isn't enough.

cutting of Megan's last word was deliciously bitchy, thank you <3

As Hank Hill says: "Find what your niche is, and you will find riches."

that notion is good, it undermines the stock market entirely

this book seems like its aimed at white middle class suburbanites with dreams of being business owners, to convince them to fearlessly join the ranks of the perpetually-failing petite bourgeoisie

First we talk to Ezekiel Kweku of MTV about his diagnosis of the Democratic Party's failure this year, how they can beat white nationalism next time around, and the Æon Flux animated series. Then the full Chapo team assembles to tackle the book "The Up Side of Down: Why Failing Well Is the Key to Success" by Bloomberg View blogger and chronically wrong person Megan McArdle. It's a horrible dumb book and everyone gets mad at Will for making them read it.
