The Mercatus Center is having its annual retreat in Scottsdale starting tomorrow until Sunday. I am sure the resort is beautiful, but more importantly, I know that there will be many interesting speakers like George Mason University’s Russ Roberts and Tyler Cowen, and John Steele Gordon, historian and author of An Empire of Wealth: The Epic History of American Economic Power.

I will be speaking, too – mainly about spending, national debt, and a host of very depressing issues!

If you are in the area and would like to attend, contact Julie Burden ([email protected]). I am sure she will be willing to discount the fee.
