Kling and i endorse at the state level, and also those experiments were designed by heats. Theres a new book out by russell sage called fighting for good evidence, social policy, which recounts the story of how difficult it was to get that, to mount this experiment is going to design them and implement them and then to use their findings.

Those go hi good to see you again. Tell us why he wrote this book. Guest as they say in the acknowledgments a reporter from the New York Times called me up when she was switched over from Foreign Affairs to Public Health and i talked to her about the American Health care system and explained to her the American Health care system and she wanted to know if we could meet for tea. I thought thats a bit ridiculous. You cant explain the Health Care System and an hour. When it be nice if there were 250 page book i could give to someone and that would explain the system.

She argues that the key thing is the clarity with which the fed communicates about where its policies are heading. Maybe not surprising, 10 billion, 15 billion, as long as they get it started, thats what the market will be watching. Say something yesterday, becky, that someone predicted it will be next year and it will be the next chairperson in the fed that starts the tapering. Did you see that . Theres only two meetings left. It was october and december, youre right. Is bernanke going to on be in a position where he did it someone said it yesterday, itself his prediction is that nothing happens until theres a new fed person. Because they tied it to Economic Conditions, i think it would be difficult to say that Economic Conditions have changed all that drastically in a month or two. You know a week
Has jolted mika to her core. What . The fact that nobody since, i guess, 96 made it into the hall of fame. And ive just got to ask a question. What has Major League Baseball and the Sports Writers that cover Major League Baseball, what has it all come down to when a guy is not allowed to get into the hall of fame and to be adored by my Young Children and meachams Young Children willies Young Children. And willies Young Children and the Young Children of america just because they committed a felony and may have perjured themselves under sworn testimony. Its an outrage. The United States congress. Whats america coming to . This is good news. Theyre cheaters. These cheaters, these felons, these perjurers are not being honored. They should say that they shouldnt be. I couldnt be happier. You listen to the Sports Writers, these dorks just being so offended by the fact that these cheaters, these felons, these perjurers thats horrible. Not being allowed in. You know, a huge percentage of memb
