with KRich, I described a unique opportunity to grill Greenspan
my college roommate used to work directly with Bernie Sanders in the mayor's office in Burlington VT
before Sanders ran and won a Congressional seat
Bruce asked me to produce 3-4 questions to hand Sanders, who would then grill Greenspan, whom he despises and disrespects
here is an outline of my questions, agreed upon with KRich

At Pavillon outdoor café, we talked about Alan Greenspan, Bernie Sanders, Bruce S. link
He seemed to find this grilling opportunity to be interesting, so we concluded on 4 points:

(AG) #1. on hedonic IT pricing, effect on GDP growth overstated grossly
(AG) #2. debt growth 6x faster than GDP growth, evidence of futility of monetary expansion
(AG) #3. financial debt growth dominance, yet no capital formation to produce wealth or jobs
(AG) #4. concept of recovery with 5-6% trade gap is utterly ridiculous (job loss severe)

Bruce suggested direct questions with leading sentences in a single page, but with a 2-3 page white paper to back it up

I must elaborate on it
perhaps the same questions for McTeer as a warmup?
thanks, and please stay on my back about this
I have become very busy in the last three weeks
