Added to Random Blogroll: Robert Reich's Blog

Robert Reich, my favorite economist, is the nation's 22nd Secretary of Labor and a professor at the University of California at Berkeley. His latest book is "Supercapitalism." He used to host "Marketplace" on public radio. He describes his blog as his personal journal. I look forward to seeing his posts pop up in the blogroll.

    Why is he your favorite economist? He is a fucking baffoon that as a matter of practice rewrites economic law on a daily basis to suit his emotional desires; let me repeat that so it sinks in; economic LAW. Economics is a study that employs techniques that are mechanical, mathamatical, and most importantly, scientific. Most of what he says can't be justified with virtually any economic model; he consistantly makes definative statements that are in fact static annalysies or snapshots of components of the economy but applies them in a dynamic fashion. He's an idiot who gets away with intellectual murder. Gop back and read your text books that weren't written by Marxists. And btw, he is also a racist; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duQDVTczGbA

    I watched the YouTube clip. Well, I watched it long enough to hear what Reich said, which was that the stimulus money should not go only to skilled workers and white males. If that makes him a racist, I guess I'm one too.

    Since the rest of your diatribe consists of blanket statements with nothing to back them up, I see no need to respond further.
