This is post really as much about the growing impact of MMT as it is central banking. Bill cites the recent Fed admission that it can set the yield curve if it chooses as evidence of that.

As you may know, I have often said that I don't like extreme immigration which causes traditional culture to be...

I’ve polished off Angus Burgin’s The Great Persuasion, recommended to me by a colleague after Daniel Stedman-Jones’s Masters of the Universecropped up in conversation. I read the latter when it came out in 2012. It made a strong impression on me with its account of the way the creation of the climate of ideas conducive to Thatcherism and Reaganism came about as a conscious long-term project on the part of a number of free market think tanks on both sides of the Atlantic, as well as some...
