    Is this one of those funny one liners you think you are known for ? Seriously economic "experts" ? Don't think that really exists. What were these experts saying in the years before the financial crisis ?

      I can quote dozens of couter articles, it doesn't make me right.

      Knowing what actually happened does.

        Crystal ball work and crunching numbers to evaluate an event are two completely different issues. A number of people in here are experts at determining which fantasy baseball player returned best value in 2014; many could do so even in a complex auction league where budget usage would need to be correlated with results. But then taking that information and turning it into 100% accurate predictions of how players would do in 2015.....nope.
        I'm just here for the baseball.

          we're also differing in what people deem 'success' or what 'works' there are people who deem Tar Sand extraction a"success' and that fracking 'worked'

          Big picture folks, don't be myopic.

            Passed the Senate by a 60-38 margin. You'd think the fact that it is mostly Republicans supporting the agreement would give the President pause, but he is full speed ahead taking a stupid failed GOP idea and co-opting it for himself. NAFTA anyone?

              I agree.

                Yo. NAFTA has done a great deal to increase trade.

                I don't get what you would have against it. It helps the US, but it helps Mexico more. I thought you favored helping the poor. Jobs area great way to start, which is what NAFTA produced. TPP would help the developing countries most.
