Did you know Thanksgiving almost didn't happen thanks to the Pilgrims' experiment with socialism? It didn't work. Fortunately, they figured out some economic truths and the rest is history.

Topics Discussed
- Why is this "Black" Friday?

- The CPI formula is messed up
- How socialism nearly killed the Pilgrims
