Mike interviews Moshe Adler.
We’ve got something extraordinary lined up for you. We recently had the pleasure of chatting with Moshe Adler, and let me tell you, our conversation was nothing short of mind-blowing. We delved into the heart of economics, debunking myths and shedding light on what truly matters in our economic landscape.
Moshe Adler is the author of “Economics for the Rest of Us: Debunking the Science that Makes Life Dismal.” And let me tell you, this book is a game-changer. Moshe brings a fresh perspective, challenging conventional economic wisdom and offering insights that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about economics.
During the conversation, Moshe shared some eye-opening truths about the state of our economy. One of the critical points he touched on was the concept of minimum wage. We’ve all heard the arguments for and against raising the minimum wage, but Moshe’s take on it is genuinely thought-provoking. He argues that a higher minimum wage benefits workers and stimulates the economy by putting more money into the hands of consumers. And you know what they say, folks: when consumers have more money to spend, everyone wins.
But it’s not just about minimum wage. Moshe’s book dives deep into a range of economic issues, from the impact of taxes to the role of government intervention. He challenges the notion that trickle-down economics is the answer to all our problems, arguing instead for policies prioritizing working-class families’ well-being.
One of the most compelling aspects of Moshe’s perspective is his emphasis on the human element of economics. He reminds us that behind every economic statistic is a real person with real struggles and aspirations. When we lose sight of that, we risk making decisions that prioritize profits over people.
Moshe’s book is anything but dry. He brings a refreshing clarity to the often murky world of economics, breaking down complex concepts in a way accessible to everyone. Whether you’re an economics novice or a seasoned expert, there’s something in this book for you.
However, perhaps the most important takeaway from our conversation with Moshe is that economics is not just about numbers on a page or graphs on a chart. It’s about real people with hopes, dreams, and struggles. And if we want to create a fairer, more equitable society, we need to start putting people first in our economic policies.
So, suppose you’re ready to challenge your preconceptions about economics and embark on a journey of discovery. In that case, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Moshe Adler’s “Economics for the Rest of Us.” you won’t be disappointed.
