are you out of your mind?

give the high tech revolution (increase in productivity) and
globalization all the credit for the prosperity of the last
20 years. Greenspan had nothing to do with either.

in fact, Greenspan continues to goof: 1) lowered rates
too much in 1998 to bail out his buddies that messed around
in Asia 2) increased liquidity ahead of y2k creating a
market bubble 3) raised the rates too high this year,
causing a collapse in technology stocks, in turn
affecting the most vibrant part of the US economy. I think
Greenspan should retire.
