R. Emmett Tyrrell Jr., founder and editor-in-chief of The American Spectator, is the author of a new book titled "The Death of Liberalism." In the book, Tyrrell makes the case that the practice of cronyism is a plague on growth. While politicians often grant preferable treatment to individual firms and industries in the name of "economic growth," these practices are antithetical to a free market economy. True capitalism does not favor any specific business, but rather allows the market to determine what will be produced and in what quantities. Our political leaders would be wise to remember this lesson. You can place an advance order for Mr. Tyrrell's book here.
