  It’s an easy conundrum to solve: nations need to start deficit spending once more, better the living conditions of minorities and invest heavily in energy efficiency schemes.

  Like the author however, they seem to have bought into the idea that government is merely redistributive and the forces of globalization cannot be reversed.
