Message:: [QUOTE="V. Kurt Bellman, post: 2238225, member: 71723"]I'm baaaaack, after a 3 month ban for being too political and pointing out what I believe is the hypocrisy of the site's rules when juxtaposed against the content of this section, which as [USER=26302]@medoraman[/USER] so eloquently pointed out, is highly religious, and also, just grossly political by its very nature. Who says so? Well, there's me and also the 2008 Nobel Prize winner in economics. I can post a link if you like. I have his text, but I didn't save the link. His thesis is that inflation hawkishness is inherently a "politics first, last and only" viewpoint. Where I erred was in suggesting Peter knows of this hypocrisy and personally endorses it. That was wrong of me. Maybe he doesn't know. Or maybe he disagrees. I still believe this section stands "at natural tension" with the site's rules, as the frequency with which posters are warned of infractions here will bear out. I also read a moderator write that the main purpose of this section is to keep the "garbage" [my choice of word] off the rest of the site.[/QUOTE]
