LPP 46 w Amity Shlaes | What History Gets WRONG About Calvin Coolidge

Thank you for watching this week's episode of the "Let People Prosper" podcast. Today, I'm honored to be joined by Amity Shlaes, who has written four NYT bestsellers, chairs the board of the Calvin Coolidge Presidential Foundation and the Manhattan Institute's Hayek Book Prize, and serves as a scholar at the King's College. We discuss: 1) How Calvin Coolidge blazed a trail of balanced budgets, reduced taxes, and common sense economics; 2) Why the popular idea that Coolidge caused The Great Depression is a misconception, and what truly fueled the disaster; and 3) More valuable lessons to be learned from Coolidge and the great work of The Calvin Coolidge Foundation and its Coolidge Scholarship, which is currently the most competitive college scholarship in the nation.
