Re: Is it possible that the Phillips curve just shifted down, and now, the economy can live with 4 to 4.5% unemployment without starting inflation? Joe, I'm not that familiar with the phillips curve, but it is my belief that 4-6 people out of 100 just aren't capable of being productive in our society. From my recent experiences with minimum wage workers, we're pushing it. chic

Is it possible that the Phillips curve just shifted down, and now, the economy can live with 4 to 4.5% unemployment without starting inflation? It was discredited, as have also most of the MATH in economics, given a few years. /How to win a Nobel Prize in economics / do { notation = SearchMath(); if ( HasNotBeenUsed(notation) && MostEconomistsDontUnderstand(notation) ) { int foo1, foo2, *foo3; foo1 = RandArray(n); foo2 = RandArray(n); foo3 = RandArray(n); theory = Apply(notation, ASSUME_LINEAR, foo1, foo2, foo3); if (theory.IsTrue() == FALSE) { delete theory; Smooth(foo1, n); Smooth(foo2, n); Smooth(foo3, n); theory = Apply(notation, ASSUME_LINEAR, foo1, foo2, foo3); } if (theory.IsTrue()) { nobel_prize = Publish(theory); } else delete theory; delete[] foo1; delete[] foo2; delete[] foo3; } } While (nobel_prize == FALSE);
