Economics in One Lesson: The Shortest & Surest Way to Understand Basic Economics by Henry Hazlitt

slow-paced

2.5

The entire thesis is to look at the whole picture when making economic policy instead of just those who benefit.  I was hoping the author would be intelligent enough to give me some unexpected insights.  Instead he peals back the first layer of policy, gets stuck on the second layer that assumes we are all robots with equal opportunities and backgrounds, and fails to go any deeper.  The author is no more intelligent than than Regannomics grandfather spewing unfounded ideas at the dinner table.
