Economics debate: Larry Summers Vs Janet Yellen: Larry Summers Lays Down The Law Of Free Markets VS Janet Yellen's Empathy Economics

[basquebromance]

a wise and humane policy is occasionally to let inflation rise even when inflation is running above target. i'm on Team Yellen

 

[Mac1958]

Summers, along with Rubin, convinced Clinton to stupidly repeal Glass Steagall. We're still feeling the shitty effects of that mess today.

When Yellen ran the Fed she kept markets nervous as hell by constantly screaming about how they'd have to increase interest rates.

Both of 'em can take a hike.
