Noah, I appreciate your responses to my comments ...

Noah,

I appreciate your responses to my comments and I will now add you to the list people I will read.

Again, I will admit that I haven't read your prior posts, so forgive me if I ask for things that you have already posted about.

Themes I would like see discussed in the future:

GDP seems to measure quantity, not quality. Is there another measure of quality we can use?

Why do Central Banks favor a 2% inflation rate? Why 2%? Why not 1% or 3%?

How does a society solve the problem of a bubble brought on by the over-extention of debt?

In the New Deal years (I believe 1933-1935), the US economy grew at a rate of 6-8%, while the US Government ran deficits of 5%. Why then today, is the US economy is growing at 2-3% while running deficits of 10%?

Who does the shadow banking system benefit?

Does war prove that Keynes was right? (Per Krugman)


Respectfully,

Chris
