Following today’s announcement of Donald Sterling’s punishment by NBL Commissioner Adam Silver over a racist tirade, Erin takes a look at the economic consequences of a forced sale. Professor Don Boudreaux, an economist at George Mason University, talks about public choice theory and how that relates to policies and political outcomes. Bryan Caplan, a blogger and professor at George Mason University, talks about the myth of the rational voter and immigration reform. In Big Deal, Edward Harrison and Erin talk about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the bill that could end these companies.
