Perhaps I should have said, 'The public likes to assume it is a government liability'. I agree there is a big element of 'accounting fiction', but that is...
No, Bernanke's view is the so-called 'Credit View' which is very different from wht we call creditary economics. I include an excerpt on it (esp towards the...
Dirk. Mainstream monetary writing has always struck me as incomprehensible - in fact, that was the reason why I decided in the context of my Harvard Ph. D. ...
It¹s getting to the point with all our good contributions that maybe we should have our OWN meeting, and publish our OWN proceedings, like the post-Keynesians...

Dear Geoffrey, I think most ³farming² in Iceland is cod fishing. I gather that your principle is the same for that ‹ except that farmers don¹t have quota...
Yes, Richard, you have hit the nail. Strangely Adam Smith did not seem to realize that in certain circumstances people will happily hold non-interest earning...
Is not 'Goodwill' a function of how much one can borrow to buy an asset at above net tangible asset value? The RBS/ABN AMRO affair created a 'Goodwill' item of...
I can confirm that Hirshbach is delightful for a small conference. The limit is presumably the capacity of the hotel. http://www.hirschbachmuehle.de/index.htm ...
Good definition, Geoffrey. In this case, there must be an awfully lot of goodwill in real estate. Especially commercial real estate these days. And subprime...
No longer, Michael. Here commercial properties are selling at gigantic discounts to building cost. Actually although it has always been easy to borrow to...
