Is there literature that addresses the effects of central banking, artificially low interest rates, ludicrous government subsidies and the keynesian obsession with consumption on the environment?
I have had this nagging feeling after learning briefly about Hayek's knowledge problem that they are the root cause.
And I suspect, although I have no data-backed evidence that supports my suspicion, that these things are also the cause of 'corporatism' and monopolies.
So environmental destruction, corporatism and monopolies are then deemed as 'market failures' or 'externalities' that warrant more government intervention, the very cause of these things in the first place.
