Keynesianism Part I - It's All About Spending


Is our prosperity derived from a continual circular flow of spending? Is it impossible for a society to increase it's total savings? Can deficit spending by a government step in to replace private activity in order to maintain full employment and restore lasting economic growth? What is a liquidity trap and what does it mean for the economy? What did Keynes really mean by "in the long run, we're all dead"? In this EconStories mini-documentary, we explore the foundations of Keynesian economics with Keynes most famed biography, Lord Robert Skidelsky. In the next episode, we'll dig deeper into some of the most controversial aspects of Keynesianism including the notion that ditch digging or world war could provide a pathway to economic recovery and prosperity.

Limitations of Monetary Policy.mp4


Keynes' arguments on how monetary policy is of limited value in times of a severe recession or depression. This involves two considerations: the inelasticity of investment demand due to business pessimism; and the development of a liquidity trap, when interest rates have been forced near the zero limit.

Jim Rickards - "Just like the 1930's"


www.NewWaveSlave.com 3-19-11 Jim Rickards was in his usual top form in an enlightening interview on CNBC. He was actually allowed to speak without being interrupted (at least not much) and he delivered more real content in 7 minutes than is usually on air all day long. Jim Rickards compared the current economic climate to that of the 1930's and he briefly mentioned the Weimar republic and how their stock market had an initial strong rally due to the money printing. Beck Quick showed her economic history by saying "It did???" Rickards also said "we no longer have markets, we have theater" referring to the Fed and Central banks around the world. Very good interview and I would strongly recommend to watch and pass it along to friends.

Roger Garrison on the Case Against Central Banking


Speaking at the Future of Freedom 5th Anniversary Conference on September 24, 1994, Roger Garrison, professor of economics at Auburn University, explores critiques of central banking from a number of perspectives. He summarizes the history of central banking, as well as the battle between the Keynesians, the monetarists (such as Milton Friedman), and the Austrians (including Murray Rothbard). Garrison's talk is a great and accessible introduction to central banking and monetary policy. Download an .mp3 version of this lecture here: bit.ly

Public Affairs w/ Jeff Berkowitz - Chris Robling


Chris Robling, a principal at Jayne Thompson and Associates (www.JayneThompson.com), a crisis management and litigation support communications firm, debates and discusses the issues with show host and executive legal recruiter Jeff Berkowitz. Roblings career has included politics, punditry and public relations. Robling was a long time program host at Chicago Public Radio [WBEZ, 91.5 FM], reported for WGN-TV from the 2008 Republican Convention and was the Executive Director for the Cook County GOP. Topics discussed include the many strategic and tactical reasons why John McCain lost and Barack Obama won. Was McCain the wrong guy in the wrong place at the wrong time? Did Team McCain not know how to benefit from Sarah Palin? Could McCain have won if he had tied Obama to Bush by opposing the bailout? Did McCain not have the political will power to do that? Why? Was the economy actually seizing up, due to a liquidity preference, or is the liquidity preference function no more than a name for a weekly beer bust at the University of Chicago Business School, now Booth School of Business? Was the Great Depression in the 1930s really the Great Contraction, duly named such by Milton Friedman for the Feds unfortunate decision to contract the money supply by a third? Was the liquidity trap, a figment of the Keynesian imagination? Who are the GOP Presidential front-runners for 2012? Are the reformers in the ascendance in the Republican Party now?

James Livingston, a history professor at Rutgers University, argues that the private sector is unnecessary to grow the economy. He thinks all we need is more consumer spending and government spending.

The Prez Dispenser! from BigFurhat at iOwnTheWorld.com


In honor of Prezident Obama signing the stimulus package, The Prez Dispenser! The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, abbreviated ARRA (Pub.L. 111-5) and commonly referred to as the Stimulus or The Recovery Act, is an economic stimulus package enacted by the 111th United States Congress in February 2009. The stimulus was intended to create jobs and promote investment and consumer spending during the recession. The rationale for the stimulus comes out of the Keynesian economic tradition that argues that government budget deficits should be used to cover the output gap created by the drop in consumer spending during a recession. The modern consensus (a blend of thinking from New Keynesian and New Neo-classical theory in economics) favors monetary over fiscal policy like the fiscal stimulus.[1] However, the Federal Reserve had already cut interest rates to zero, greatly reducing their policy options. The flow of finances was stagnated because of a liquidity trap, or an over leveraged/broke banking system, also limiting monetary policy effectiveness. While many economists agreed a fiscal stimulus was needed under these conditions, others maintained that fiscal policy would not work because government debt would use up savings that would otherwise go to investments, what economists call crowding out. Proponents countered that the negative effects of crowding out are limited when investment has already stagnated. The measures are nominally worth $787 billion. The <b>...</b>

Re: War and Economy + a bit of FringeElement's bulge


This is a response to this video by Spawktalk: www.youtube.com And this video by Fringeelements: www.youtube.com Austrian Economics is compatible with -- and indeed contains -- a distinction between the short and long run. There are even fiscal stabilizers that can be supported by anti-statists. The point is not to dogmatically reject everything a Keynesian suggests simply because it isn't ATBC. Hayek wasn't opposed to stabilizing intervention in the economy. He was an advocate of nominal-GDP stabilization which is one thing unemployment insurance does. The reason being it doesn't necessarily touch the price system. @Fringeelements, I read the article on the "depression no one ever heard of" and will incorporate it into my next video.

THE CALM BEFORE THE STORM. Just a few hours ago, Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City Hoenig made some statements that seem very bullish for the dollar. How will the market interpret these comments? What will be the outcome from the FOMC meeting November 3rd? Here is a summary of his statements. - Increase in US savings rate is a positive development for long term economic prospects. - Very "unhappy" with the unemployment rate at this time though trying to reduce it too quickly can create additional problems. - Zero interest rates are appropriate in a crisis but not in a recovery. - Not in favor of high interest rates in this fragile recovery. - 0.5% to 1% rates are still "very accommodative." - If you wait to raise rates until there is certainty that all is fine in the economy, than you have waited too long. - Additional easing would require "fine tuning" of inflation expectations and is highly risky. - QE could be seen as monetizing the debt. - Excessive liquidity can lead to "very bad outcomes." - US is part of the global economy so must be mindful of policies in other countries. - Fed held mortgage paper should be allowed to roll off. - Does not think the US is in a liquidity trap because US is actually growing and will continue to grow.Don't forget, we will be hosting Live!

A brief overview of how I see Keynesian Economics... As always, feel free to comment and ask questions.


Keynes Keynesian Austrian economics policy monetary money liquidity trap

Friedman's False Assumption


Although he did not originate the monetary theory formula: MV = PT, Professor Milton Friedman's contribution to monetary theory is the idea that the money supply and the velocity of money can be controlled. In fact, Friedmans thesis is that a stable money supply growing at a fixed rate increase of 3% is the key to economic equilibrium at full employment. This video asserts our current economic climate, the Great Depression of the 1930's and the economy of Japan in the 1990's proves Friedman's theory to be false. All three eras prove the impossibility of controlling the money supply or the velocity of money.

The Austerity Wave Promo *WeAreChange*


- We Are Change - We hit the streets to ask people about the word "Austerity" This is a promo, for a mini documentary called "The Austerity Wave"... Stay tuned... Merriam-Webster's Dictionary named the word "austerity" as its "Word of the Year" for 2010 because of the number of web searches this word generated that year. According to the president and publisher of the dictionary, "austerity had more than 250000 searches on the dictionary's free online [website] tool" and the spike in searches "came with more coverage of the debt crisis" Opponents argue that austerity measures tend to depress economic growth, which ultimately causes governments to lose more money in tax revenues. In countries with already anemic economic growth, austerity can engender deflation which inflates existing debt. This can also cause the country to fall into a liquidity trap, causing credit markets to freeze up and unemployment to increase. Opponents point to cases in Ireland and Spain in which austerity measures instituted in response to financial crises in 2009 proved ineffective in combating public debt, and placing those countries at risk of defaulting in late 2010 Filmed and edited by Mike Roy Special thanks to Anthony Verberckmoes and Curtis for the help. wearechangetoronto.org www.wearechangetoronto.org

Adam VS The Man with Adam Kokesh (11/3/10) The Federal Reserve (1 of 8)


www.adamvstheman.com The Fed Still Up To No Good, Still No One Cares While the economy continues to decline and the American people suffer the consequences of our centrally planned economy, the root cause of the suffering is ignored. In fact, the Fed just announced an "injection" of $600 billion that will continue to concentrate wealth and power in the hands of those who profit with every dollar printed in Washington. When the Fed creates money, the dollar bills in your back pocket and in your bank account lose value. This inflation is a tax, and the power to tax is the power to destroy. If you're not familiar with how the Fed works, educate yourself, get pissed off, and then tell everyone you know!
