Really a great interview with Keen! Some of the parts that resonated with me:
'Most economists don't know the history of economics, so they don't have a sense of the context and how assumptions build on each other.'
- Yeah, that checks out. I've never taken a history of econ course to get my phd and I learned quite a bit from a brief history.
'GDP is just transformed energy.'
- that is a nice, simple, and accurate model that really could be the core we build on in econ.
