I first developed an interest in economics about four years ago. The first economist I was introduced to and blindly began to follow was John K. Galbraith. I read several of his books and then slowly started to narrow my interest into the field of monetary policy and one day I stumbled upon End the Fed. It blew my geeking mind. I was hooked. I felt like throwing my Galbraith books out the window. From End the Fed, I found my way to Meltdown. If I wasn’t convinced at End the Fed, Meltdown finished me off. That was a couple years ago and I have been following the Austrian School with some Chicago influences, reading Mises, Hayek, Hazlitt and Friedman. I have also been following Russ Roberts on EconTalk as well. I can’t get enough of this stuff.
However, I have a problem. I am a fairly economically well informed “American.” The only problem with this is that I am a Canadian. I live in a small city (suburb) immediately north of Calgary, Alberta. Do you know of any like-minded Canadians who are writing, podcasting or blogging whom I can follow as well? As you may have guessed, the US doesn’t have the market cornered on suspect monetary and fiscal policy. Keep spreading the truth, my friend. Cheers.
Have any leads for him? Are you yourself such a lead? Drop him a note at taschulz -at- shaw dot ca.
