Rather than argue about it, and rather than cite sources that

Read Mark Thoma, Nouriel Roubini, Peter Schiff. Hell, just go read.

If what you're going o do is spout Ben Stein and Art Laffler,
well....go play with yourself. It wil be a lot more productive than
this crap you're spewing.

Isn't Schiff the guy who handed Laffer his own ass as a sandwich?

I seem to recall that happened. Schiff has been calling this disaster
for years, and he, like Nouriel Roubini ma both be the proverbial clock
that's right twice a day, but gthey've had the pblic courage f their
cnvictions. Sc hi s much more an ideologued, though, than most others



And then Laffer never paid off his bet (like the conservative
idealogue he is)?

Or am I misremembering?

I have a dim memory of that, too, but I can't recall it clealy, so I
can't really corroborate.
