Earlier this week, Jeff joined Dennis Tubbergen of EverythingFinancialRadio.com to talk Austrian economics and the bizarre world of negative interest rates.

Can the Fed, the ECB, the BOJ, and other central banks keep this up indefinitely? Can central bankers rebut Mises, Rothbard, and Hayek, who understood that a sound economy must be grounded in savings and investment? And, should negative interest rates be viewed as a form of insurance?
