The myopic and parochial analyses of the prime minister's major essay on the financial crisis by Australia's journalists indicate that they have been hoodwinked by free-marketeers for years and need to acquaint themselves with other ways of thinking. Thank goodness for Robert Manne ("Neo-Liberal Meltdown", March 2009). If Malcolm Turnbull has any ideas about the causes of and remedies for the global economic crisis, I would like to see them.
