Hug an Economist: We Need It - Freakonomics - Opinion - New York Times Blog#more-2603
This whole thing is just great to watch. It's really extraordinary when a major candidate comes out and states:
“Well I’ll tell you what, I’m not going to put my lot in with economists.” (Hillary Clinton)
Gee Hillary you don't think that maybe, just maybe when you cannot find a single economist to back up your position, that maybe this whole idea is not smart?
It would be one thing if you were dealing with an issue where economists disagreed, or at least some economists some where would back up the idea. But this is simply not the case here. No economist has stepped up and said the Gas Tax holiday is a good thing.
