Sometimes I write about economics, sometimes about philosophy. I don't really see the difference. From Andalusia, where 'El canto quiere ser luz' (Federico García Lorca)
Freedom of expression is lost when those who believe they have the right to act as arbiters of others' thoughts also attempt, in one way or another, to impose that supposed right.

It is very positive that the EU is developing a common defence and security policy. But why should increased defence spending be accompanied by a reduction in social policies? Why deficit and debt ceilings, except to pay for increases in military spending?

We think that efficiency and productivity are achieved in an economy with this or that investment, in semiconductors, technology, or a sector that seems to us to be at the cutting edge. In reality, efficiency and productivity: properties of the whole economy, they depend on human capital formation.

Pensamos que se logra la eficiencia y productividad en una economía con tal o cual inversión, en semiconductores, tecnología, o un sector que nos parece puntero. En realidad, eficiencia y productividad: son una propiedad de la economía completa, dependen de la formación del capital humano.
