May 23, 2006 The magical marketIt will solve all problems, even geological ones: It is a marvel to behold the inability of mainstream American economists to explain the present, never mind predict the future! After several years of steady ramp-up in energy prices, their pronouncements on the effects these prices should be having on the economy are turning out to be so far off the mark as to be laughable. But this is no laughing matter: high prices are one thing, actual energy shortages (which are coming) are another. If the economists are unable to explain what is happening now, how can we expect them to be of any use in helping us prepare for what will happen next? |
