Blog Roll


So I read many different things on a daily basis. However there are only 24 hours in a day and only so much can be done. Sometimes researching one thing leads to learning about a whole new subject you never even knew about.

CARPE DIEM-because things are better than people tell us
Café Hayek-A blog by Donald Boudreaux who writes fantastic letters to editors (who are usually economically ignorant)

EconLib-Various bloggers David Henderson, Bryan Caplan, Garett Jones
Greg Mankiw-probably one of the first blogs I ever read
