I read the abstract. It sounds like a good piece of micro/econometric work. It has nothing to do wih the macro effects of deficit spending.

Perhaps there is more to their analysis than is in the abstract.“As a lifelong member of the Columbia Business School community, I adhere to the principles of truth, integrity, and respect. I will not lie, cheat, steal, or tolerate those who do.”

Hardly. I read the National Review because it's got a lot of very thoughtful conservative viewpoints. I try to keep some balance and read liberal viewpoints as well (although I admit I prefer reading conservative articles, sue me).Originally posted by DaShi View PostAnd yet you eat up National Review articles.
Overall it's a pretty good magazine.If there is no sound in space, how come you can hear the lasers?

Just skimmed the article. There is absolutely nothing there indicating that these guys have the slightest clue about what's wrong with such a naive analysis.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

It's pretty pathetic that you have absolutely nothing to say on this other than to claim "they're professors, therefore they are correct"....12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET
