On-topic: I remember my undergrad course in macroeconomics. It was a total and utter mess. Just tons and tons of theories and formulas that could not be demonstrated, but had to be memorized. Most macro-economists suffer greatly from the lack of a "credible" scientific base for their studies. Hence the article, a generous serving of all possible stereotypes that macro-economy can give. BUT, I also remember microeconomics, and that was a totally different story. Most useful when thinking about markets and how people behave, but interesting if applied to greater scales (macro-micro-economics?). Off-topic, but considered interesting: Am I the only one that finds it frustrating that Subtle blogs have no local comments? I find it diminishes the value of the text in itself.
