Paul Craig Roberts: I
know it is.
Rob Kall: "with
lunacy!
Paul Craig Roberts: I
know" I know it is, but the production function that's the basis of this theory,
is the work of two Nobel Laureates.
Rob Kall: Who?
Paul Craig Roberts: Joseph
Stieglitz, and Robert Solar. So" the authority of the profession is behind the
idiocy. So when you go to challenge it, most people, most economists will say
"well, this can't be right, because look at all these Nobel Laureates who gave
us this. They must be right!' So they don't even bother to think. And so,
nobody is addressing these issues. And of course ever since the Bush" the
George Bush crowd got in there, they" completely destroyed the Environmental
Protection Agency, you know, the Forest Service, everything else, by sticking
in these corporate polluters in charge of it. So we had that BP oil spill in
the Gulf of Mexico, simply because Cheney & Bush stuck in polluters instead
of regulators. And then they used that Correx to hide the oil, which has caused
the most incredible deformations in sea life. And" and nobody knows even exactly
what the effect of all that stuff in the Gulf of Mexico means in the long run. And so even the kinds
of protections that we had which were minimal, they've now been cast aside. And
if you talk to most of the politicians, they think that environmental
protection is just some kind of a Communist way to prevent corporations from
making money. So you're right"
Rob Kall: That wasn't always the case. At one point
Conservatives were actually" ecologists as well.
Paul Craig Roberts: [at same time] No. Well very few of
them. [laughing]
