The best moderator you don’t notice, the guests are the stars, just steer them in the right direction.

The kind of quality in-depth debate we never see on well done David... ❤

[vrtig]

Two economic titans having a great discussion. Both in their twilight years, but both sharp as ever. It was a joy to watch.

[ericdaniels]

Both of these men are absolute icons in their area of expertise. I graduated high school in 1987 in Maryland, both these men were discussed in our teachings of current events. Excellent debate allowing the two stars to shine as they both deserve. Art Laffer still has the spirit of the Reagan days with his jokes and ability to slice through sensitive topics. I still look back at Reagans many jokes and how he brushed off opposition while cracking a joke in the next breath. Absolute brilliant display of wisdom and knowledge from our elder professionals. More intelligence between these two men than the entire white house today.

David, thank you. You do have the best financial podcast on YouTube. The ability to get these esteemed gentlemen together is awesome and appreciated.

[mulatto]

David Lin with another high caliber debate.

[Heyjadid]

This was one of the best shows! Economic intellectuals demonstrated that staying sharp well into your 80s doesn't require a technology device.

[therealestake]

This was comedy gold. Even David Lin got in on it: "Connecticut... is a state a lot of people want to move to." And Laffer has an Obamaphone. These guys are where I want to be when I'm 83.

[Soupy]

David, you have to bring Laffer back, he's great.

[Th_Hoff]

Art laffer is the man! Bring him back for his property tax theory!!

[reggiebishop]

[dineshka]

Two amazing minds with a moderator of the highest caliber. Thank you David so much for these. We continue to learn.

[genestone]

These two guys are GREAT. Thanks for having them on.

[scott]

Art's 83! Damn... he's sharp as a tack and looks good for 83.

[WallSt-oq]

Mr Laffer and Proff. Hanke are two completely opposite characters that are both very intelligent and experts in their field. Their understanding of how economy works and how each parameter affects it is so eye opening. David you are a great host and you know how to pick the right guests 👏 I truly wish i could some day meet you all in person.

[Marcuss]

I felt as though I had a front row seat on the truth of economic and money reality....then a second later I realised I did. Amazing. Best discussion I've seen in years.

[charlespatton]

The best moderator and guest every time. This channel is gold!

[LeRalph]

By far, the Steve Hanke interview with another person on the Panel is invaluable. We learn a lot.
