Hayek Speaks on Inflation and Unemployment
26 November 2008
| Peter Klein |
Kudos to Jeff Tucker for unearthing this 1975 interview from Meet the Press. Notes Jeff:
The line of questioning he endures is hilariously naive and idiotic. We think we have a Keynesian problem now; it’s clear that these people really believe that policy makers can manipulate the economy like a machine, trading off unemployment for inflation and back again, with no trouble.
John Cochran suggests another Hayek appearance from 1975, this one a lecture at the University of Colorado (provided by Fred Glahe). Here are a few more from the Mises.org audio archive. And see also the new book.
