Hillary’s really big boo-boo

A week ago, I had the pleasure of attending a seminar with economist Alan Beaulieu of the Institute for Trend Research. Beaulieu is one of the few economists who over a year ago predicted that the housing bubble would burst and bring about a deep recession, a prediction that has more than come true. His talk included comment on Barak Obama’s economic stimulus package, which he predicted would cause a lot more problems than it would solve. Beaulieu also lamented the fact that Hillary Clinton didn’t win her party’s nomination, because he said that Hillary is a known quantity and one could reasonably predict what her actions might be.
