A fun video that gives a pretty solid overview of Hayek and Keynes:

For a quick overview of just how frequent and severe these busts have been in American history:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_recessions_in_the_United_States

I don't know why, but I am particularly nostalgic for the Panic of 1893. I guess it just seems more fun than the Panics of 1819, 1837, 1857 and 1873. The little recessions in between were just wannabes.

Cute, but I've never really been into rap. This is more my style:

Hayek? You mean Selma? Who's Keynes? Youtube is banned in Turkey so I can't just follow the link and watch the video.

Have you tried using a proxy? I had the same problem in Kuwait but the proxy worked just fine.

PM me for more info.

Yeah I always use a proxy for youtube but I just can't follow links I'd have to type something in the search engine. I guess I could have just typed in Hayek and Keynes and found it but I was feeling lazy and the proxy causes all these pop up ads that get past my pop-up blocker.

Thanks for the offer though.
