Chris Calton and why it was real socialism every time Episode 55

Chris Calton and the Socialist Problem

Chris Calton, Mises Wire contributing author, PhD history student at the University of Florida, and contributing writer to the Austro Libertarian magazine joins me to discuss his article in the Summer 2019 issue of the Austro Libertarian.
He wrote a piece about socialism before Marx, what it looked like, why it was thought of and thought to be a good idea, and where are we now.  Why do so many people eagerly embrace socialism when the history of failure after failure holds only bleak outlooks for the next version?
