Today we hear about a radical solution to the crisis in the eurozone, we ask whether the commericalisation of baby hood is going too far and a leading economics professor is the latest guest to raise a very fundamental question - has western capitalism failed?

The 440bn euros behind the eurozone's rescue fund - the European Financial Stability Fund (EFSF) - was originally reckoned to be enough to shock the financial markets into submission.

But where to find that kind of cash? Daniel Gros of the Centre for European Policy Studies believes he may have a solution. He suggests the EFSF be converted into a bank.
