Brian Romanchuk — Book Review: Prosperity For All

Summary:
Professor Roger E. A. Farmer has written Prosperity For All: How to Prevent Financial Crises, in which he lays out the case for creating a sovereign wealth fund whose objective is to stabilise financial markets. If we can eliminate financial crises, we can avoid the rise in unemployment that results. Although that is an interesting concept, I was highly skeptical about the idea before I read the book -- and my skepticism remains after reading it. Instead, the discussion of macro theory within the book is why it is of interest. Bond Economics Book Review: Prosperity For AllBrian Romanchuk
