Everything bubble
Over the past decade, the world’s central banks have distorted the price of money by bringing interest rates to record lows.
With credit so cheap, asset prices have risen dramatically as companies and governments have borrowed to the hilt.

To discuss this massive problem and propose some potential solutions is Steve Keen, professor of economics at Kingston University in London and author of Debunking Economics.
