You don't get it. If 50% predict a and another 50% predict b and a layman predicts b saying "hey it was so obvious" he is in great error. You that is my friend.

  Layman? My degree is literally in economics. And yes it was obvious. Any economist who didn't see it is probably a bought shill. It's not 50/50. What happened is orthodox economics ie. academic consensus. And Krugman is a shill, FYI.
