Sticks and Stones

Lou Dobbs called my friend, ex-student, and uber-blogger Alex Tabarrok a "complete idiot" last night on his (Lou's) show. Check out the video here. Dobbs also referred to the 500 economists who signed a letter in favor of increased immigration as "jackasses".

In his big finish, Lou said the economists problem was they had forgotten about the "free enterprise" that made this country great and worshiped nefarious "free markets" instead.


Is this a great country or what?
