Regarding the other point you made: there are a lot of economists that say a lot of things.
Exactly. "Economist" is about as broad a term as "Politician". Personally, I identify with the Austrian school of economics. But, there are many other camps and you can find someone to try and back up just about any scenario out there. The fact that someone with a title is willing to say something doesn't make it automatically "right."
I think the parent poster is just alone on Christmas Eve and in a particularly foul mood.
