The Fallacy of the Supply Curve
Debunking Economics - the podcast - A podcast by Steve Keen & Phil Dobbie - Wednesdays
Last week we looked at how economics text books that taught us the law of demand, and how fundamentally flawed it was. Today, equally as useless, the law of supply, with the supply curve representing the marginal cost of producing goods. Steve explains how its is flawed because of the assumption that as you produce more of something the cost of production rises. Phil asks, how does that relate to the idea of economies of scale? Is conventional economic theory arguing against itself? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
