About this episode
As I see it now, there are really two economies—two distinct systems of producing and exchanging wealth. Or rather, two systems that purport to do these things, though only one of them really produces anything, and the other is organized by a peculiar form of exchange.
The first is what is called the trade economy—the one summed up in the phrase "the free market." The other might be called "the tax economy."
