The Floodgates Have Opened

James K. Galbraith and Michael Intriligator

A chapter in Unbearable Cost, 2006, pp 54-56 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Hurricane Katrina and the death of New Orleans have changed everything, exposing the rot in government and the failures of the free-market worldview that has dominated our politics and economic policy for more than 30 years. Once again, the country must take stock of a terrible failure; once again we must change direction.
