First time I've seen in print the distinction between economics and policy. One quibble: given Krugman et. al. isn't it likely that the failed policy was in fact proposed and supported by an economist who subscribes to failed economic policy? Taylor’s comments are pithy and perspicacious. First time I’ve seen in print the distinction between economics and policy.

That's a great illustration of the coming crisis that the polticians are creating (a "government bubble"?), and how we need to restore fiscal sanity to government ASAP.

Now we can add economists to the list, the other economists, the real ones. For these people are not economists, but, as Ludwig von Mises so aptly described them, fabulists, tellers of tall tales.

Thanks for pointing this out, Russ. His first post is on his recent WSJ article. I found that somewhat odd because it was directed mainly at the stimulus checks that were sent out, which lots of large-stimulus proponents were saying from the beginning wouldn't work. So he tried to slip in a critique of stimulus in general with an analysis of a very specific component of the stimulus. Either way, Taylor is always a very welcome voice on monetary policy. Now there's one more blog I have to track :-P This is great! Thanks for pointing this out, Russ.
