A look back at the bestselling book franchise that taught people to “think like economists,” by which it meant “think cynically and amorally.”

It's funny to me that hard economic thinking really brought me around to being a leftist at some point. I really liked the book The Darwin Economy by Robert H Frank, because it really just pokes fun at right-libertarians and the idea of unregulated markets being whats best for everyone.

Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.


Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.
