New Nobel prize winning economists agree with Ron Paul?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ch3y1-V2Lvc
These 2 economists make the point that humans are not mechanical and
think for themselves, and therefore will not respond "in a straight
line" to rigid government policies. People see the inflation induced by
government and the faux stimulatory effect quickly wears off. When
prices rise, consumers will not spend as much or demand higher wages,
which have unforseen economic problems for businesses

Seems both of them are admired by the Swedish Central Bank!

This is not an Alfred Nobel prize.

This is a Swedish Central Bank grant of nobility benefits. Swedish taxpayers may find this royalty payment tacked onto their National Debt.

This is not a normal prize.

This is a grant that Swedish taxpayers will be billed as royal payments (part of their National Debt).

Disclaimer: I am not an accountant nor a Swedish taxpayer, but have received my own royalty payments (copyrights, patents, & trademarks).

I was never awarded royalty status; though, I was given honorary degrees from several Universities (e.g. Oxford, England, 1907).

Seems one of them has spoken favorably of the Gold Standard

Seems like an interesting guy.

Seems both of them are taking Swedish Central Bank handouts.

Much like their predecessors last year. Central Bank relationship is warm & friendly. Here, from last year, the Swedish Central Bank gives National Debt funds to foreigners... two Americans & a Brit.

Economics, the Dismal Science. Swedish Central Bank Settlement!

Why should the Swedish taxpayers be in debt to this Swedish Bank giving away cash? Why should anyone honor their royalty payments?

Nobel Winners

Congrats !! Yet, hope they understand they will now most likely never get another promotion for these views. :/

Nobility granted. Swedish Central Bank granted nobility.

    Sveriges Riksbank (Sweden's central bank) Grants Nobility Favor

Taxpayers foot the bill with their National Debt.

The Alfred Nobel prize is funded from his estate by his will. Economics is not included.

The Royal Swedish Central Bank granted nobility with their make-believe cash they they make out-of-thin-air. They grant cash & nobility benefits by & by to encourage professors to wax eloquent on their monopoly-money. An average of this... A percent of that... Pretty soon the discussion seems serious enough to have some believers.

Economics: The dismal science.

Just one year ago... as documented on DailyPaul... this Swedish Bank nobility promotional affair was flagged.

    Not an Alfred Nobel Prize. More a tithe to those willing to write praises to the Central Bank of Sweden & their ilk. Paid by Swedish National debt.
