Macroeconomic Policy

David Reisman

Chapter 14 in James Buchanan, 2015, pp 196-211 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Buchanan, born in 1919, was a witness to the human tragedy of the Great Depression. He was himself a victim of the slack: I was to be the lawyer-politician… Economic reality destroyed this dream; Vanderbilt moved beyond the possible as the Great Depression moved in. College was what I could afford, Middle Tennessee State Teachers’ College in Murfreesboro, which allowed me to live at home and to earn enough for fees and books by milking dairy cows morning and night for four years. (CW I, 12)
