    Yeah but then he goes on to explain why that can't/won't work in the near term. Or, in our teabag economy, ever.
    Monetarism in the strong form - that only monetary policy can be used to solve economic crises certainly is dead - I mean it failed in both preventing the crisis and offered no solution to helping avoid the near-catastrophic failures of end 2008....TARP etc wasn't monetarist.


    Simply using the concept of market price and attributing it to Efficient Markets is a real stretch. EMH people tell us all markets are self-regulating. That is so laughable now I dont even know where to begin.

    Yes I've heard that idea and in the '70's that might've made sense. The problem that I am seeing is that many of us are already paying little in taxes since we don't have enough revenue where taxes hit us hard. Less taxes at the moment though I'm not seeing it leading to more job creation.
