A fourth? From the US but the situation is similar—too much cutting of income tax:

Paul Krugman.

Activist

Mitchell works to promote active government economic policies and the use of budget deficits as a tool for economic productivity.


We want a real economist Monk, not some academic who readily admits "I think my economics profession is very dangerous,”.

[Jovial_Monk]

A lot of economists work at University, teaching, research etc. Still economists.

You demanded just one, I gave you four. End of story.

BTW: Krugman writes for the New York Times. Still an economist tho.

You are a desperate fool Monk, you sounded off without having anything credible to back it up, and now are foraging despotically for an economist, real or imagined, that will in some way support your views.

Again....

Name one economist that backs up your claim.




Better still.... quote them.

I gave you four

You're a fucking idiot

[Jovial_Monk]

What does need to be done—remove the rest of the Howard spending from the Budget. Still tens of billions of the little turd’s waste, pork and rewarding those who voted for him:

1. Remove asset millionaires from the Old Age Pension

2. Clean out the super rorts, still tons there.

3. Re-institute indexation of petrol excise

4. Remove negative gearing and capital gains tax exemption

5. Tax family trusts as companies

6. Remove other middleclass welfare, lots more FBT rorts etc

Doesn't left of centre have any others up his sleeve that he can help you out with?

The current lot you have just copied and pasted from him is laughable coming from someone that actually reads their garbage, but coming from someone who is just taking information fed to him and posting it like he has an idea is just plain embarrassing.

Maybe just get him to log on and embarrass himself directly instead of through you?

[Jovial_Monk]

No, these are just four I thought up all by myself.

Bullshit, you are a liar and transparent as fuck.

Go ask lefty for some more coaching and you can work your way up from complete numpty to economic dipshit.

BILL MITCHELL: They're continually revising upwards now as they realise that the economy is in desperate need of spending support and they're not willing to give that spending support because they're locked into this political drama about the badness of deficit.

I advocate that the Government should reverse its policy; it should recognise that private spending isn't adequate enough to eat into the pool of unemployed and it’s so weak now that the unemployment rate is rising, and it really needs to bail out the economy again.
