Every time an economist shows up on television news, there should be a poet that gets equal time.

Back in the 90s poets like Snoop and Pac got way more air time than Milton Friedman. Not sure what happened.

Since economist is now synonymous with Keynesian, there should be a debunker who gets equal time

every time you tweet an idea, there should be an intelligent person tweeting also

Great idea. It could include- Every time a sensational negative event or outlandish political action is taken, a true positive loving event. There are more of them- never reported.

lmao, no there shouldn't. if you study economics, you'd understand the pull of markets & the need for an economist at times. it simply makes no sense to say 'equal time to poets.' it's like saying every time my business hires an accountant, they should hire a barber too.

I’m convinced the economists don’t actually know anything. Poets have more useful information.
