They dig into how governments block progress in the name of safety, why antitrust usually backfires, and how “free” public services wipe out space for affordable alternatives. Bryan makes a compelling new case for free markets - even free market advocates have often been overly critical of business, and he comes up with a novel concept: there are things that sound good and bad, and things that are good and bad. Politics is promoting things that sound good but are bad - markets are promoting things that sound bad but are good.They also cover:* the Microsoft antitrust case and its real cost* why poor countries suffer from too little big business* entrepreneurship as real-world experimentationA conversation for anyone building around regulation or trying to understand how progress really happens.More about GUEST’S work:* <a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bryan_Caplan">Bryan’s Wiki</a>* <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/bryan_caplan">Bryan’s X</a>Explore Infinita City:* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.infinita.city/times">Explore the Archive: The Infinita City Times</a>* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.infinita.city">Visit Infinita City</a>* <a target="_blank" href="https://www.infinita.city/builders-hub">Join the Builders’ Hub on Telegram</a>* <a target="_blank" href="https://x.com/InfinitaCity">Follow Infinita City on X</a> This is a public episode.
