WSJ: No Debt Limit
Here is the 2nd of Dr. Goose's now regular contributions to the WSJ Total Return blog, regarding Joe Stiglitz' thoughts on the US debt/GDP ratio. I am thrilled to become a regular contributor to the Wall Street Journal's website, and hope that readers of this space will visit me there as well.

Dear Dr. Goose!
ReplyDeleteSuch fantastic news. Who knows what it may lead to? A prominent position in academia, policy adviser for the agency of your choice, dare I even say... a Cabinet appointment?
Yet if it leads to regular limerick features in the Wall Street Journal blog, well, that is wonderful too! Enviable as well. Many want what you achieved.
Seriously, it is an accomplishment, as your format is non-traditional. Also, you are not a doom-and-gloom contrarian. They have it easier, getting a foot in the door recently, if you know what I mean ;o)
Keep up the good work! I will visit you WSJ-way.
I'd settle for the official title of "America's Limerick Laureate." ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comments!
