Sorry, the link does not seem to work, but go to the bloomberg.com website and you should be able to find it.
What do you think about Mr. Keene's comment?
As you might know, Congress left town (Washington DC), not to return until after the election, in order to campaign for their reelection, in spite of the fact that much work needs to be taken care of, including finding a solution for the "fiscal cliff" before the end of the year (and then there will be the election itself, the thanksgiving break and the Christmas holidays). Only the unelected members of the Fed remain in town to handle the economy, even though most economists tend to think that fiscal policy would be more effective at this time than monetary policy.
If you were a
benevolent
dictator/king (assuming that there is such a thing), how would you conduct monetary and fiscal policy in the U.S.?

As you might know, Congress left town (Washington DC), not to return until after the
election, in order to campaign for their reelection, in spite of the fact that much work
needs to be taken care of, including finding a solution for the "fiscal cliff" before the end
of the year (and then there will be the election itself, the thanksgiving break and the
Christmas holidays). Only the unelected members of the Fed remain in town to handle
the economy, even though most economists tend to think that fiscal policy would be

think about a plan to save the gas which I never though a year ago. Also, when I go to Walmart,
I feel the same 50 dollars, but the products I bought were sharply down. Frankly, I may pay
attention to the world or the US economy unless I satisfy my own life. The congress is the
position too high to reach by normal citizens, so could all my fellows move their eyes a little bit
down. Do not just focus on the thing just meet small portion. If things keep going like now, I
believe I will lose my position unless the economy recover by itself.
Comment Prof: OK, but how would a benevolent dictator manage the monetary and
fiscal policies of the US, given current economic conditions, in order to maximize the
benefits of all the people?...
