In light of recent actions in the U.S. to control the deficit, as well as the UK riots, and a recent conversation, I’m reposting this video on austerity. It’s not perfect, yet it presents concisely a decent counterargument that is rarely reported or discussed, to the suggestion that there is no choice or alternative to the current austerity programs of most countries.
