As part of the profile at FP, Cowen was asked if he was in favor of stimulus or austerity. He replied that it was a false dichotomy and that Fed printing is needed:
A false dichotomy. Monetary accommodation, but a credible plan for long-term fiscal balance.Oh yes, always fiscal balance in the "long term'.
Others on the FP 100, include:
Ben Bernanke
Barack Obama
Dick Cheney
Condoleezza Rice
Hillary and Bill Clinton
Paul Krugman
(NOTE: Apparently in an effort to appear "balanced," Ron Paul was also placed on the list, but there is no Q&A with him. He obviously had the wisdom to not respond to interview requests that puts him on a list that mostly includes warmongers and inflationists.)
