Promise you won't become angry , like this?

That's not angry, Spike. That's pointing out hilarity.

I'll tell you what. If you promise not to cry, I'll tone down the rhetoric and make it safe for you to show us what you know (or don't) about economics.

Stop stalling and tell me where my economics has gone off the tracks.

We should probably start an MTV, Cartoon network or Disney thread for you to hang out in. You look ridiculous in all the others.

Wasn't there a Katy Perry thread already in circulation?

If Bullard "panicked" when the S&P fell 4%, what did he do when it went further to down 10%?

The TRUE inflation rate is something like 8%.

So what's rectum cheering about?

He's cheering that he got all this attention and PO'd people.

“The danger now is inflation,” warned University of Chicago economist and Paul Ryan dinner companion John Cochrane in 2009. He warned of this again in 2010: “A substantial inflation will follow — and likely a ‘stagflation’ not inflation associated with a boom.” And again in 2011. (“As a result of the federal government's enormous debt and deficits, substantial inflation could break out in America in the next few years.”) And again in 2012 (“Inflation Should Be Feared”).

"Inflation has stayed very low. And look, here is John Cochrane in today’s Wall Street Journal editorial page, no longer warning of inflation. Now he is arguing that deflation might be coming, but it's not so bad:
