    That’s refreshing from a source like that (Northeastern and not truly establishmentarian, but somewhat elitist and play-like liberal — a good somewhat-left Northeastern source).

    Yes, this slump and correction isn’t like others.

    Note the nonsense we see in the comments, like the “conclusion” we “need” inflation. [shaking head]

    Isn’t our federal debt now at or above 100 per cent of GNP?

    @DLS
    Which GNP? (real, or inflated)
    Which debt? (with or without intra-governmental holdings)

    The CBO excludes the intra-governmental debt from its projections.
