Derailing the gravy train

It was the economist John Maynard Keynes who famously said: "Practical men who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influence, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist."

If Keynes is correct, who's influence created the world in which we now live?

Host Ross Ashcroft is joined by the American journalist, economic analyst, author and trader Doug Henwood to discuss the ideology behind neoliberalism – and why it has failed most Americans.
