Summer of Recovery Explained

Rodney Dangerfield said it best in the movie "Back to School."   The professor's concept of business is alarmingly similar to the Obama "financial savant" Austan  Goolsbee's Keynesian concept of how business is run.  I find it amusing that virtually no one in the White House has ever run a business, nor had a career outside of politics or academia. In-class  theories are great, such as phlogiston, evil humors, and Anthropogenic Global Warming, also known as a new way to "spread the (meaning: your) wealth around," but rarely, if ever, do these theories prove useful in any realm other than "Fantasyland."
