This refers to “Flexible arguments” (May 24). Not many have taken on the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the citadel of financial wisdom! To compare free trade with easy capital flow seamlessly is the depth of misunderstanding. By the same analogy, if governments were to flood their economies with liquidity, prosperity should be automatic. I am beginning to reduce my reverence for the God of international finance.
