What is causing the shortage of goods and workers? What should we do about it?

Topics covered include:

  • How a tree pandemic killed billions of American Chestnut trees
  • How a massive increase in demand has crippled the global supply, leading to an eight-fold increase in shipping costs
  • Why there are so many job openings and people quitting their jobs
  • Why the free market doesn't work as well for child daycare
  • How stimulus payments during the pandemic reduced poverty rates
  • What is the lying flat movement
  • How everything is in place for an extended period of high inflation even though the bond market still anticipates inflation will be transitory
  • Why we should own real things and plan more downtime
