“Narrator Scott Merriman would do well as moderator of a debate between political opponents: His tone is authoritative but eminently reasonable and restrained. That quality makes him an ideal narrator for this thoughtful audio…Merriman is comfortable with both the economics jargon and the warmer personal anecdotes that Avent shares as he builds his argument.”
