False Economies

The Strangest, Least Successful and Most Audacious Financial Follies, Plans and Crazes of All Time

SD Tucker
This light-hearted look at the financial ideas and policies of economists and politicians down the ages outlines the theories of thinkers and leaders such as Adam Smith, Karl Marx and Margaret Thatcher. Describing various ill-conceived schemes and disasters such as Hugo Chávez’s management of Venezuela, the author is on the side of the free market in his lampooning of economic experts and ideological politicians.
