The Function of Profits (On the Other Hand Ep. 15)

Episode 15 of the series 'On The Other Hand' focuses on Chapter Twenty-one of Henry Hazlitt's classic work, Economics in One Lesson. This short discussion explores Hazlitt's argument that profits guide firms and individuals to avoid wasting inputs and maximize their outputs.
