Yves Smith — The Economics of the 1%: Neoliberal Lies About Government

Yves here. This is a short, straightforward Real News Network interview with John Weeks, Professor Emeritus of the University of London, which dissects the logic, such as it is, by which neoliberals argue against taxes and for smaller government.

I wish the visual image was not so choppy, because Weeks’ remarks are cogent and accessible. I’ve included the transcript from RNN as well as the clip. I hope you’ll share them with family and colleagues.
