David looks at the danger that happens when we use hasty generalizations in our economic thinking. A company does something bad? Companies are bad. A business deal goes bad? Business deals are bad. A trading partners does wrong? Trading partners are bad. The illogical movement from a particular to a universal is flawed thinking, but when it gets pu…

David is so tired of talking about the tariff debacle of 2025 that this week he brought on a special guest to do some of the talking for him. Joel Griffith of Advancing American Freedom joins David for a further rap session on all that is wrong with the current tariff regime, but the two of them take a special weapon to the imbecility of a “tariff …

David is joined by Richard Reinsch, the second guest to join Capital Record this year, for a discussion of the “new conservatives” and the “new right” movement toward populism. What you will hear in this discussion is that none of it seems very new at all. Notes: Reading the New Conservatives Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswiz…

David got very excited when a recent Wall Street Journal article said that “work-life balance will keep you mediocre.” He wrote a whole book tearing down the very concept of “work-life balance.” But this article’s rationale might be just as flawed as that of those who use this deplorable phrase. Show Notes: 'Work-Life Balance' Will Keep You Mediocr…

David takes on the state-capitalism idea that the right has been rightly critical of in China for many years (market forces that are highly directed by the state), but takes this cogent criticism to the idea of Nvidia revenue shares, Intel equity ownership, CEO selection, and other mystifying things that if a leftist president were doing the right …

It appears from media reports that SiriusXM is done with their long-term, nine-figure (annual) relationship with Howard Stern, the former FM radio shock jock turned woke, politically correct bore. On today’s Capital Record, David walks through how the two Howard Sterns were both perfect encapsulations of the undermining of a free and virtuous socie…

On today’s Capital Record, David looks at the issue of housing affordability and walks through Rahm Emanuel’s new op-ed in the Washington Post whereby a confused explanation of the financial crisis is given, and even more confused solutions are offered to a problem Rahm mostly identifies correctly. Few subjects in the American economy touch more pe…

David looks at the unspeakable recent murder of the Blackstone Real Estate CEO and those who have celebrated the murder. Highlighting their despicable lack of moral clarity is the easy part. But unpacking the inexplicable economic ignorance embedded in their murderous hatred is perhaps an equally important subject. Fortunately, most people do not c…
