Crony Capitalism Exposed by David Stockman

David Stockman

David Stockman claims that crony capitalism has transformed Republican treasury secretaries into big-government interventionists and populist Democratic presidents into industry-wrecking internationalists. He questions the assumptions of Keynesians and monetarists alike, arguing that both "liberal" and "neo-conservative" interference in the economy can be damaging and dangerous. Stockman was elected as a Michigan congressman in 1976 and joined the Reagan White House as Director of the Office of Management and Budget in 1981.
