    If you listen to one genuine economist,
    - he uses consistent terms and real models.
    He knows fifty times the idiot who pokes a finger in your chest while shouting what's what.

    But, then you listen to fifty genuine economists;
    - and somehow they add up to 1 village idiot.

    I can't do the math.

      LOL...

      If most economists said the lack-luster economy is getting a little better, many people would equate that to most scientists saying global warming is increasing...

      They're not going to believe it until they see it...

            The PlayGround
            12:30, in the shady spot between the monkey bars and the swings.

            Young Crymtyphon sits with his nerdy friends.
            They are sketching on the basketball court with chalk
            swiped from the art room.

            A shadow is cast; they look up to see
            DeathRay and his gang of gum-chewing,
            gritt-spitting gang of future thugs

            "Beat it, losers," hisses DeathRay. He has a batman lunchbox
            full of rocks , and he swings it back and forth like the hammer of hell.

            Crymtyphon stands. So do his friends. He smiles, rubbing out the
            chalk marks carefully with his foot.

            With the mildest of smiles they walk away.

            "Losers," snickers Deathray.
            Quicksilver , his leather-clad girlfriend from sixth grade,
            is staring down at a few remaining chalk marks.
            "What they were drawing? It looks like stock quotes and computer designs.
            I wonder what microsoft is?"

            They laugh the question away; and only the years taught them the bitter answer:
            nerd revenge.

              have you ever met 50 economists in a room?

              a nerdier bunch of people cannot gather, or the universe would end...suddenly.

                "have you ever met 50 economists in a room" .
                No.
                But I did once share an elevator with Paul Krughman.
                I asked him whether he thought the elevator would go up or down.

                He told me to shut the hell up.
