Yeah, it kinda is.

Logic fail.

If only Larry and Andy Wachowski had more money, the third Matrix movie wouldn't have sucked. Let's just spend insurmountable amounts of money and pay people to dig holes with six digit salaries and lifetime pensions to get the economy moving because there couldn't possibly be any serious consequences to devaluing the world's dominant reserve currency.

Wow well that's certainly an accurate representation of what he was talking about.



Here's the thing that you can't get around: that guy has been spot-on since the beginning about this whole thing, while all you austerity pimps keep stepping on your own d***s with prediction after prediction that never materializes.

So.... hmmm... who am I going to listen to? Tough choice.

Credibility: it's a beeyotch.

None of your flailing changes the fact that the man has been spot-on since 2008 while the austerity pimps have continually made predictions that have never materialized--while at the same time your "austerity" big idea has wreaked havoc in Europe.

Yet I'm supposed to ignore him and hitch my wagon to you.

Uh, no.

And it's funny that someone who created a strawman claiming that I said that gov't spending was the "solution to all the world's economic problems" is now stamping around insisting that I "own" something I never said or that I am "peddling" something, when all you've been peddling is guaranteed failure and delusional economic theory that's failed big-time in reality when applied.

Maybe when you and the other austerity pimps start "peddling" something that has actually worked, you might gain some credibility. As of right now, though, your credibility is zero--so most of us could give toss what you think about "Keynesian" or not.
