I would agree with him, but what fraction of economists do?

If you got 30 economists together (chosen at random from the upper ranks of US economists) how would they answer these questions:

1) What level of private debt should an economy have (%GDP)?
2) What level of public debt should an economy have (%GDP)
3) What level of inflation should an economy have (%)?
4) How should money supply grow?
5) What rate of growth should the economy have (%GDP and normalized per capita)?
6) What do you think of this bailout?

I suspect the variance would be pretty large in their responses.
