Hello and welcome to the political orphanage, a home for plucky misfits and problem solvers.

I'm your host Andrew Heaton.

On last week's exciting episode of this program, I spoke to Freddie de Boer about the tenets and worldview of Marxism.

Then I fought my evil twin, woke up from a coma, and several other delightful soap opera antics.

This week, we are going to turn our attention away from Marxism to capitalism.

Last year, I flew to Berlin, Germany to interview Dr. Rainier Zeitelman about

Nazi economics, what the Nazis wanted to accomplish economically, what that actually

looked like.

It was a fascinating interview with a sharp guest.

I will link to it in today's episode description.

So I was delighted to discover that he has a new book out in defense of capitalism.

And for unrelated reasons, I flew to London, England to discuss said book with him.

It's a good chat, and a good book about why free and open markets remain the single best anti-poverty program as yet devised by humankind.

Enjoy!
