Look, you asked for economists that approved of the way Bush was doing things, and I gave you a load of them in one reference. If you want to argue that they aren't "real" economists, provide proof.
I could go through the realms of academia, including the Chicago School and others, and dig up the economic papers that would support my views, but what would be the point? Why bust my ass trying to convince someone who is incapable of reasoning from observation?
Arguing with you is like trying to nail Jello to a wall, and if you are not comfortably squirrelled away in that haven from reality called academia, you do a damn good impression of someone who is.
Your kind of mindset in the realm of physics would demand a degree in quantum mechanics of someone who was trying to build a boat.

- Unfortunately, you seem to be correct. The employment rate (% of persons employed) has gone DOWN. This is very bad news. I don't see any recovery of jobs coming in the next few years.
