Taxcast 110: How Economics ruins economies

Much of the world is run on the basis of economic theories that have become accepted truths of our era. But they actually have very little evidence to back them up. This month, Naomi Fowler speaks to finance journalist and writer Tom Bergin on how economics ruins economies, and puts economists in the dock. Tom's book, FREE LUNCH THINKING: HOW ECONOMICS RUINS THE ECONOMY is available here. Plus: which nations are the world's worst offenders for helping multinational corporations pay less tax than they should? The results of the Tax Justice Network's Corporate Tax Haven Index 2021 are out, featuring John Christensen of the Tax Justice Network Produced and presented by Naomi Fowler www.taxjustice.net/taxcast, distributed by www.realagenda.org
