»A petri dish of Keynesian ideas«

And although the warning sirens are blasting at the highest volumes imaginable, few economists can hear the alarm.

Data out this week shows the Japanese economy returning to recession by contracting for the second straight quarter (and three out of the last four quarters).

This tortured logic should be a clear indication that the policies were flawed from the start.
