The End of Work & Inconvenient Facts

Happy Father's Day everyone! From the author of Popular Economics comes a surprisingly sunny projection of America's future job market. Forget the doomsday predictions of sour-faced nostalgists who say automization and globalization will take away your dream job. The job market is only going to get better and better, according to economist John Tamny, who argues in The End of Work that the greatest gift of prosperity, beyond freedom from painful want, is the existence of work that is interesting. I'll talk to Tamny about his vision. Gregory Wrightstone is a geologist with more than 35 years of experience researching and studying various aspects of the Earth's processes.? He will join me to discuss Pope Francis' efforts to work with executives of major oil producers and investment firms to push them to use the companies to address climate change, And his book Inconvenient Facts: The science that Al Gore doesn't want you to know?. Don't forget about the Edwards Notebook and the Veteran's Tip of the Day! All of this and more as time allows. Listen live, join the chatroom, be a part of the show.
