Bad economic ideas inflict untold human suffering. When they come cloaked in a fog of Orwellian obfuscation, their poison and effects can spread with little hindrance. The public is misled. Power plays are hidden from view.
In Greece, where suicide rates have risen sharply in the wake of austerity measures, people lose hope.’
