[136] Thomas Palley on ECB policy + Keynes & Ladar Levison talks Govt Surveillance

Summary:
Our lead story: The European Central Bank has introduced a number of different measures aimed at stimulating the Eurozone economy such as negative interest rates, and cheap long-term loans to banks. What does all of this mean? Erin takes a look. Then we sit down with economist Dr. Thomas Palley to get his view on the ECB decision and explore distinctions between New Keynesian economists and Post Keynesian economists. After the break, we check in with Ladar Levison of Lavabit to discuss his run in with federal authorities on the one year anniversary of Snowden's revelations on the NSA. In today's Big Deal, Edward Harrison and Erin continue the discussion of government surveillance, digital privacy, and encryption. Take a look. Check us out on Facebook:
