My name is Bob, I'm going to be blogging here on T&B. I'm an open-minded virgo with undergrad degrees in economics and spanish. I play lacrosse and I study phillipino martial arts (sticks and knives). I also have a cat.
Like most people who visit or post on this site, I find economics to be an excellent lens for looking at the world. One of the reasons I enjoy economics so much is that I love disagreements with other people. Not the violent, I'm-going-to-smash-your-face disagreements; the intellectual kind. With economic principles tending to be opposite what most politicians and idealist say, I have plentiful opportunities to argue the virtues of Wal-Mart and free trade.
I am most interested in the application of economic principles to the politics and everyday life. (Thomas Sowell is one of my favorite authors). I am a registered independent though, so if my blogs seem politically charged, rest assured that my disdain for all but a few politicians is equal in its veracity.
All that being said, I look forward to disagreements, discourse and fine economic thinking!
