What should be the role of the state in regulating the free market to ensure price protections for rural agriculturalists?
This was NOT the question I expected to break down with today’s guests Manyindo Richard and Tusiime Patrick… but that’s where we arrived at. After considering the classic dilemma of the prince and the pauper in a Batooro context, we turned to the plight of matooke farmers in a nearby town called Rweihamba and ended up accidentally addressing one of the largest classical questions in politics and economics in a very real context. Plenty of laughs along the way too! It’s episode six of The MonkeyBuddha Tapes, hope you enjoy.
The outro song is None Shall Pass by Aesop Rock, check it out here – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEBGCOCxLgA
