FET #39: Is Cameron just another lazy two-faced economist?

from Fresh Economic Thinking · host Cameron Murray

President Truman once complained about trained economists: “Whenever I ask their opinion, they say on the one hand, so-and-so; but on the other hand, so-and-so, On the one hand, — but on the other hand. I would like to meet an economist with one hand!“In this episode, Jonathan pushes Cameron to explain why his recent interviews gave the impression that he thought there was nothing wrong with the housing market. Yet at the same time, he pushes for major public intervention. Which is it!?Follow Cameron and Jonathan on X/Twitter.
