  • Relevance As a Virtue in Economics
    RELEVANCE AS A VIRTUE IN ECONOMICS PETER J. BOETTKE n 1979 I entered Grove City College with three goals in mind: to play on the var- sity basketball team, to prepare to be a high school basketball coach, and to marry my high-school sweetheart Rosemary, who was also attending Grove City. I Iachieved only one of these goals—marrying Rosemary only a few weeks after gradua- tion in 1983. Injuries and other factors blocked my achievement of the first goal, and the discovery of economics redirected the second. I was a convert to economics. Many of the students who were serious about economics that I met at Grove City were already interested in the Austrian School of economics and free-market policy. But I was completely innocent of such things. I took economics because I had to in order to fulfill a requirement. By Christmas of 1979, I bought my father Milton Friedman’s Free to Choose as his gift. Dr. Hans Sennholz was my economics redeemer.1 The summer before entering Grove City, I worked for a short stint digging pools. This was during the time of a gasoline shortage, and as the youngest member of the crew of workers, I was entrusted to siphon gasoline from one truck to another in the morning so we would- n’t have to wait in the long line before heading out to a job. During my first week of economics lectures, I learned why there were gasoline lines and why it was the fault of government policy. Economics was relevant to the life I was experiencing.

  • The “Tron: Legacy”
    Release Date: December 16 Rating: TBC Run time: TBC rom Walt Disney Pictures comes “TRON: Legacy,” a high-tech adventure set in a digital world that is unlike anything ever captured on the big screen. Directed by F Joseph Kosinski, “TRON: Legacy” stars Jeff Bridges, Garrett Hedlund, Olivia Wilde, Bruce Boxleitner, James Frain, Beau Garrett and Michael Sheen and is produced by Sean Bailey, Jeffrey Silver and Steven Lisberger, with Donald Kushner serving as executive producer, and Justin Springer and Steve Gaub co-producing. The “TRON: Legacy” screenplay was written by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz; story by Edward Kitsis & Adam Horowitz and Brian Klugman & Lee Sternthal; based on characters created by Steven Lisberger and Bonnie MacBird. Presented in Disney Digital 3D™, Real D 3D and IMAX® 3D and scored by Grammy® Award–winning electronic music duo Daft Punk, “TRON: Legacy” features cutting-edge, state-of-the-art technology, effects and set design that bring to life an epic adventure coursing across a digital grid that is as fascinating and wondrous as it is beyond imagination. At the epicenter of the adventure is a father-son story that resonates as much on the Grid as it does in the real world: Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a rebellious 27-year-old, is haunted by the mysterious disappearance of his father, Kevin Flynn (Oscar® and Golden Globe® winner Jeff Bridges), a man once known as the world’s leading tech visionary. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn’s Arcade—a signal that could only come from his father—he finds himself pulled into a digital grid where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years.

Historians, economists, and politicians have all combed the wreckage searching for the “black box” that will reveal the cause of this legendary tragedy. Sadly, all too many of them decide to abandon their search, finding it easier perhaps to circulate a host of false and harmful conclusions about the events of seven decades ago. Consequently, many people today continue to accept critiques of free-market capitalism that are unjustified and support government policies that are economically destructive.

SENNHOLZ: As a matter of fact, I am working on a piece about the Japanese recession. It has persisted for some ten years, which is quite incredible. It is erroneous to assert that recessions are caused by insufficient aggregate demand or whatever other explanation may be offered. Only the Austrian trade cycle theory explains the phenomenon and provides important advice. HANS F.
