Hello friends: After many years of paying little attention to LinkedIn, I'm doing an about-face. I've accepted LinkedIn's invitation to use the new "creator mode" and will be posting commentaries and links here, chiefly about economics and world affairs, that I think deserve more attention. FYI my ideas are eclectic, encompassing what you might consider both right- and left-wing views. I support, for example, school vouchers (US conservative), universal health care (US progressive), legalizing narcotics (libertarian), and carbon taxes (every economist on the planet, but seemingly nobody else). I follow both the MMT economists and the WSJ opinion page, and I write occasionally for brownstone.org .... So good luck trying to pigeonhole me! If you have any reaction, pro or con, to a post/article of mine, please add a comment. I don't mind if you disagree -- I'm used to that!DoranMarch 2023
