A new Cowboy Economist video just hit the airwaves, this time on tariffs! I've tried writing this one numerous times since Jan 20, the problem being that explaining tariff incidence is complicated without drawing a graph or two. But, I did my best. youtu.be/ksJPi2lCHhA?...

Another Cowboy Economist video! This one explains how the federal government's budget works, using Melanie's Harvey Bucks from her fourth-grade-teaching days! youtu.be/KV_yFUTO6PI?...

A very quick Cowboy Economist video on what DOGE has "accomplished." It's not my best work, but it feels good to be back in the saddle again!!! youtu.be/127IuPwaNm8?...

Cambridge U Press sent over the cover to my forthcoming book. I got to pick the basic design and then they work in title, author, etc. I like how they did so.

FYI, for some reason my Facebook account has been suspended. I have appealed.

This just in: up to 50 free reprints of this exciting* article available from this link!!! "Post Keynesian theories of exchange rate determination: a critical survey" www.tandfonline.com/eprint/CAVCS... *Warning: your level of excitement may vary.

Many thanks to Joe and his Carbon Radio for this interview! www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygfr...

Please check out the bottom of this website for the audio version of my Contending Perspectives in Econ book. Bless you, Jeff Epstein, for all the hard work you put into editing these for me! Two chapters to go and it's done! activistmmt.org/john-harvey/...

I think Forbes.com has at least a semi-paywall now, but here's me on why Social Security cannot go bankrupt. If SS disappears, that's a political and not an economic choice. www.forbes.com/sites/johnth...

Contributed to a piece on CNN (me near the start and at the end) about Trump's impending recession. There ain't no silver lining, it just sucks. www.cnn.com/2025/03/21/e...

Starting in 2023, I have taught a class each fall that is organized around showing the students how to explain economics to a non-economist audience. The final product is a student-generated report entitled Horned Frognostications (get it?!). Enjoy! www.hornedfrogecon.com

Every Dec 7 we are reminded that our federal gov’t has no budget constraint & all we need to prod us into employing idle resources and refocusing our economy is a good reason. Apparently, the climate, income maldistribution, and being #55 in infant mortality and #49 in life expectancy don’t qualify.
