About this episode
The episode discusses the implications of viewing science as a public good and the concerns surrounding China's access to American scientific work.
While there is a public uproar about China having access to the work of American scientists, there is a bigger issue at stake: Is science “owned” by “the public”? If not, why are we so worried about the Chinese? Original article: https://mises.org/mises-wire/if-science-public-good-let-china-pay-it
