It wouldn't be that bad, but for the fact that so many of the "Ken Rogoff level" forecasters are totally beholden to the likes of George Soros and will simply spout whatever rubbish they're paid (very well indeed) to spout. Prime recent examples being the dire consequences of a Brexit vote that never came to fruition and the equally dire consequences of electing Trump in the US. In both cases we were warned massive world-wide recession would result within days or weeks; some even predicted nuclear Armageddon. Of course it was all garbage intended to frighten voters into compliance with the wouldbe world controllers. > As a Mail reader, Cursitor Doom won't have had the pleasure of reading > Will Hutton in the Guardian in the 1980's, where Thatcher's tame > monetarists in the Treasury kept on making predictions that looked silly > to the Keynesians at Oxbridge, and Hutton had fun contrasting the > Treasury predictions with the Keynesian forecasts, and even more fun > writing an "I told you so piece" six months later. I don't read either of these worthless rags, you idiot. I used to take the FT only for years and years and years until it went downhill a while back and now I read *nothing* from the MSM at all. I consider myself very much better informed as a result. > The real problem with economics is that the fats cats thrive on boom and > bust, and love economists who claim that this is natural and > unavoidable. That much at least is true. My news client has taken you out of my KF on the basis that it thinks you are now rehabilitated and should be given another chance. I've seen very little here that causes me to agree with that.
