taxation & an expanded private sector”? Paul Johnson –Economist @ IFS

  • “40 year experiment not working …….. Controlling economy via Central Banks & Interest

Rates ” Martin Wolf FT

  • Public debt almost under control, but Private debt out of control – an all time high.
  • Privatization very mixed success – EG: Carillion, Public Housing deficit, Rail Franchising.

………………… have been been falling steadily since 1980s.

Back to a Keynesian economy OR more Monetary Policy?

NEW IDEAS

Modern Monetary Policy

  • Not worry about budget deficits
  • Finance Ministries (Governments) should take more control
  • Not UN but UNDER-employment more important
  • Use Regulations, Controls & Taxation ….

to encourage long-term investment.
