This guy doesn’t agree with me entirely either:
In today’s [syndicated] column on deficits, you remark:
“By which I mean it is an astoundingly boring and complicated subject that unfortunately allows people to sound righteous on a subject they don’t know much about.”
Apparently, this sentiment applies to you as well, because your discussion makes it clear you understand nothing at all about the economics of budget deficits. Of course, as seems to be universally true of journalists, ignorance never gets in the way of sounding off, so you sound off ignorantly. I could give you a couple quick examples to show some of the fundamentals of deficit economics, but then I am an economist, a group you causally dismiss elsewhere in your article. Given that you so casually dismiss us economists and our profession, and so evidently never have learned any economics, I won’t waste any more time trying to educate you. You clearly are willfully self-ignorant with desire to change that state of affairs. So I’ll leave you to wallow in your self-imposed, willful ignorance. Just be aware that you are indeed ignorant and virtually everything you said in your column was elementary gibberish.
