Yesterday, I posted to a George Will column, The Enigma of Janet Yellen as Fed Chair. It is a pretty decent anti-Fed piece---which is driving the Fed apologists crazy.
I believe George Will will be severely attacked for his position, and I am unsure of his ability to defend himself given his relatively recent embracement of libertarianism (even though, at best, he is a very weak libertarian).
He'll either cower to the unwitting apologists for the financial elite or he'll fight back and risk losing his career. These are pretty awful times when it comes to tolerance for free speech in such a public forum. He also risks being put on the governments right wing extremists black list.
George Will was there when I recorded Hayek on "Meet the Press" in 1975.

Delete"nut" ... "paranoid". The use of psychological terminology is a clear sign of distress, and an inability to argue rationally.
ReplyDeleteLol... you're right. In short, this means we're winning.
