Comment on Why No Jobs

...and this is why programmers should just program, vs. spreading some unsupported gutty-feely conjeture of an economic problem way too complex. Crap... anybody feels they can write about economy after misreading a couple lousy quotes from a guy who actively proposes inflation to any bleeping crisis around the globe.

For what it's worth, I doubt Krugman would support eliminating the independence of the central bank. For those of you unfamiliar with Krugman's writing, Aaron's wrongness shouldn't lead to a wholesale condemnation of Krugman.

Are you saying that grease monkeys should be rarely seen, never heard, should stick to their crap and let real specialist to handle the money? After all they do so well.

I think it's more along the lines of "better to be thought a fool and remain silent, than to speak up and remove all doubt"

Would you like to see a code check-in by Paul Krugman?

There's nothing wrong with expanding your horizons (I'm an armchair economist as well) but trying to write critically on a subject you don't really have the background to do so on is counterproductive.

> Would you like to see a code check-in by Paul Krugman? I'd gladly welcomed code check-in from 8 year old if it nailed the problem.

I honestly have no idea why anyone listens to aaronsw. He's a plague of intellectual dishonesty and half-truths.

Q.E.D.
