Know Thy Enemy

Really, Mr. Chait, Really? by Greg Mankiw
On July 1st, Mankiw who advises Romney and was CEA Chair for George W. Bush, will be rewarded for his schoozing on behalf of the one percent* and will become chairman of the Harvard econ department.

The upside is that he'll be blogging less. For example just the other day he posted a Dilbert cartoon strip. I've always hated Dilbert with a burning passion. When ever someone likes Dilbert, it's a bad sign.

* For instance in the famous 2008 Summers econ memo to Obama, Mankiw denied to say that any stimulus was needed. And this is who Harvard choses to head their econ department?
