@egfalken @ATabarrok @tylercowen I quite appreciated it too. The focus on the long term and the power of compounding is something that is definitely very easy to underestimate and needs to be beaten into our heads more. – источник2019-04-15T00:00:00.000Z
Subtitle “A Vision for a Society of Free, Prosperous, and Responsible Individuals” gives a hint of its contents. I love these kinds of books: full of well-considered, smart, rational and surprising ideas from an economist. – источник
