I have a BS in Economics but I wonder..............what do you need to be called an economist???..............I guess a PhD and lots of political support.
Greenspan always seemed to me like a bullshit artist. I remember this stupid story he said that as a child he would write down train's times that they passed in front of his house in a notebook. Thanks to Cramer, I can smell that bullshit from far away. I guess he had that hussle in him, but that's not exactly statesman-like. Even worse we know how at the head of the Fed for over 15 years he fucked this country.
Just a quick re-visit to this surreal topic. The former head of our Federal Reserve is a fraud. And our Treasury Secretary is a tax cheat.
