#4 If he is criticizing the Bretton Woods economics agreement, this is one of the more dangerously *sane* statements to have come out of Iran in decades.

It is militarily important to remember that underneath a crust of ignorant religious fanaticism, Iran has some very urbane, educated and sophisticated people.

This means that Iran actually could have its "place in the sun", like pre-WWII Japan, if it was just not handicapped with corrupt and superstitious kooks.

#5 He's definitely correct...to a point. To dismiss the prevailing economic theories out of hand would be a mistake. But there is no doubting that some of the fundamental elements, from multiplier effects to velocity of money need to be looked at very carefully. The truth is, regardless of this administration's bungling of the economy, we should be making more head way than we are. Money supply and more importantly velocity are not reacting as most theories say they should.

#6 They're trying to keep the Momentum of Money up, by replacing lost Monetary velocity with Money Volume.

All they'll get is inflation, unemployment and a worthless currency.
