I was moved to comment on another blog from John Hearn a Banking Economist and Lecturer. John Responded to my comment as follows.
“I agree Roger. Sometimes you need naive to undermine those academics who hide behind big words, unintelligible econometrics, silly assumptions. Also, people can read it and point out what is wrong. I take solace in the fact that no one explains this or that is wrong, will you?”
I certainly will John with pleasure, as the following Twitter conversation shows I think online Dialogue over Skype is a good way to examine Starting assumptions through to delineation of points of difference.
Let’s get to the bottom of the Forest Gump business.

Money is what is immediately available to use in a transaction.

Its an Elephant of Hindustan Moment reading that John. Naive is the best description in my opinion. https://t.co/y2N3dpUtCE #ConquestofDough pic.twitter.com/rufkMiyLXq

John your article is a Curates Egg good and bad in parts, What I would gladly do is discuss your Article Line by line in a Live Stream discussion.
Your Article is fairly short and revolves on maybe 8 principles your polemic is Private good Public bad and Commons is reduced— GrubStreetJournal (@GrubStreetJorno) March 18, 2019
Article was 1000 word max. Do not confuse public good, which is precise, with the good of the public. I made it clear the government must buy the public good on our behalf and private priority rights are more efficient than common property rights.
Off to the gym now!

Roger Lewis and David Malone: One Interview To Unite Them All.
First of all, I’d like to introduce the interviewer Roger Lewis (left) who was, to me, most unexpected in his approach, the interview was no love in and he was not afraid to challenge David on the basis of his own views and outlook, for example on Brexit. I only know Roger through the blogosphere and the first surprise to me was his appearance. I’d imagined him as the type who went to bed in a suit and tie and only slightly loosened his collar when the temperature exceeded 35 degrees celsius. Instead I was confronted by a sanitised version of Catweasle! Long flowing locks and moustache, I hope he’ll forgive the Catweasle reference, casual clothes but a razor-sharp mind. There was an obvious chemistry between the two so even in times of disagreement there was no shouting across each other, both were able to make their points informatively.
