Ahmadinejad != Milton Friedman
"A wave of propaganda created by national and non-national media in the past months has played up the issue of rising prices," Ahmadinejad said in a cabinet meeting, cited by Aftab-e Yazd daily on Tuesday. These media "have sought to portray the government as incapable as if it had been supposed to reduce the inflation (rate) to zero percent within a year," he said. Not my fault, I swear on my mother's beard!!! A group of leading university academics wrote in a letter printed in the Iranian press in June that Ahmadinejad's economic policies were "lacking a scientific and expert basis" and risked causing "persistent inflation". Hey, that is not what the 12th Mahdi told me! Wait a minute...I am the 12th Mahdi... Posted by: Ol Dirty American 2006-10-10 |
