[H]ousehold incomes... weren't going up. You don't need a Ph.D. in economics to figure out that something's not right with that. - John Komlos

The ideological commitment to "," ...has brought us to our current, precarious situation.

[A]cademics and politicians continue to sing the praises of abstract markets as if... descended... from heaven while maintaining... silence about the fact that without government help, countless... corporations would have landed in the dustbin of history.

My focus is on real human beings... rather than inanimate objects... as money or abstract concepts... which economists often substitute for the human dimension.
