The chapter covers an interview with a distinguished economist discussing critiques on the 2% inflation target, advocating for a 3-4% range. It delves into economic growth, equal distribution of benefits, and the Federal Reserve's response post-pandemic and post-Russian invasion of Ukraine. The conversation extends to redefining freedom in society, economic freedom, regulations, taxation, antitrust policies, and addressing market power issues, including the influence of tech giants like Amazon and Meta.
