Critics challenge neoliberal economic policy metrics
Original: Neoliberal lies debunked: “ # Economic policy should be judged by # employment , # investment , public # services , # in
Commenters are pushing back against the idea that economic policy should be judged mainly by compliance with self-imposed fiscal rules and forecasts. They argue governments should instead be measured on employment, investment, public services, inflation, sustainability and people's wellbeing. The argument targets austerity-minded fiscal frameworks, particularly in the UK, where debates over budget rules and their impact on public spending continue.
Why now: Ongoing debates over fiscal rules versus public service funding and living standards are keeping this argument prominent.
