What to do with an economy on the rocks?
In today’s New York Times, there are four articles by four noted economists suggesting alternative approaches for improving the current economic conditions:
- It’s a Time to Listen, and to Obey the Laws of Arithmetic
- Put Away the Wish List, and Help Households Bounce Back
- The Mood Always Matters, So Restore Confidence First
- The Real Mandate Is to Bridge the Wealth Gap
First, I’m gratified that the last guy agrees with my opinion of what’s gone wrong. Secondly, I think its interesting that the four approaches are not mutually exclusive, and perhaps the right combination of all four might reduce the depth and duration, and therefore the pain, of the current recession.
