432. When Your Safety Becomes My Danger
from Freakonomics Radio · host Freakonomics Radio + Stitcher
The families of U.S. troops killed and wounded in Afghanistan are suing several companies that did reconstruction there. Why? These companies, they say, paid the Taliban protection money, which gave them the funding — and opportunity — to attack U.S. soldiers instead. A look at the messy, complicated, and heart-breaking tradeoffs of conflict-zone economies. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
