The Failure of the Keynesian State, sponsored by Jeremy S. Davis.
REGISTER NOW
The New Deal began before John Maynard Keynes propagated his theories. But the state was pleased to have a scientific gloss for its looting, inflating, and controlling ways. The question then and the question now is: does this approach actually stimulate the economy. The Great Depression lasted long past the New Deal. In Japan, the Keynesian way has turned a marvelously productive economy into a stagnant and seemingly permanent mess. What will the same path mean for the U.S.?
Our speakers will address the failures of macroeconomic planning then and now, and urge another path called free enterprise, words that Obama seems to have difficultly uttering to say nothing of practicing.
Speakers: Doug French, Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, Tom Woods
