In the Balance's resident commentator, Colm O'Regan, takes the reins this week in a wide-ranging discussion with Sarah Lyall, a social policy researcher with the New Economics Foundation; Richard Dobbs from McKinsey Global Institute; and Peter Antonioni, co-author of Economics for Dummies and a lecturer in management at University College, London.
