Educated Americans love to sight the BBC as “unbiased, unfiltered news.” It’s just news that fits with their own bias. I just read this fascinating story about the Dalai Lama: Dalai Lama’s…

My Prejudice
I fight with a known prejudice I have concerning this whole economic thing. But I know I’m not the only one who does this. Factcheck.org points out an important fact: Why all the uncertainty among first-rate economists? Well, for one thing, economists have very little data with which to work. There are plenty of theoretical…
