re: As for conservative economists, they have proven to be no more trustworthy than Bush. The worst one is Kudlow......he hasn't met a GOPer or neo yet that he doesn't like. We could be in a depression and he will report it as a slight hiccup that will be over in a month; sooner if an election is coming up. It's not so funny about the politicization of the US. It used to be that most economists were pretty nerdy, they just worked the numbers without an agenda. Same with (global warming) scientists, same with judges. That's right. Everyone has an axe to grind. TF posted an article that supposedly refuted one of a common contention these days that the rich are getting richer at the expense of the poor. On the surface, it looked like that's what the article was doing but if you read carefully, it was just a bunch of BS....strawman upon strawman. Certain people aka Republicans are discussing important issues in articles that are heavily populated with unnecessarily-complex terminology around constructs that make little sense. I suspect its been going on for a while. Now it seems everyone has a political agenda. Who do you trust anymore? Yourself. You have read everything over closely to make sure it comports with what you know.
