I spoke about economics with Keynes (Soumaya) in the FT:
Nobel laureate Al Roth and the economics of organ sales
"The economist Alvin Roth been talking about kidneys since at least 2003, noting time and again that kidneys are in short supply, waiting lists are growing longer, and people are dying as a result.
"So why is Roth — who appears on this week’s episode of the Economics Show podcast — still banging on about kidneys? Well, because all of those things are still getting worse."
Here is the podcast:
and here is the transcript:
" Soumaya Keynes
So we always start this show with a silly question. So, on a scale of one to 10, how relaxed are you about marketisation? So 10, you’re extremely relaxed about having transactions in literally anything, and maybe five is the average person.
Alvin Roth
So I’m probably a 7.5, maybe 7.52."
