  1. A lot of ideas of Keynesian economics are perfectly compatible with an individualistic view of the world.

    We want full employment not because of a sense of charity for all working people. But because if everyone else's jobs and incomes go down, we can get dragged down with them.

    Brad deLong once neatly said, "We all have an interest in full employment and growth. We are the 100%."

  3. Steve Keen: Always enlightening and a pleasure to hear from. And some thoughtful stuff on the Dickens story that I hadn't considered.
