Rap-onomics: Keynes vs. Hayek

January 26, 2010 - 10:22 pm - by Claudia Rosett

Worried about “stimulus” spending? Wondering how to explain the hangovers brewing in the Fed’s punch bowl? Policy-wonked out over economic debates that make no common sense?

Film director John Papola and George Mason University economist Russell Roberts have put together a rap video, in which John Maynard Keynes and F.A. Hayek go head to head over government spending vs. the free market, during a night on the town. Worth checking out, here it is: “Fear the Boom and Bust.”
