Putting a Silk Hat on a Sow – NDP Resorts to Spin and Lies to Cover True Intentions
The quality of this free press article is pretty low tending to the absurd. Where did these strange and ill fitting Yankee Doodle ideas come from? They seem very out of place in 'conservative' Canada whichever way you slice and dice it! Yankee ideas go home?

The Scandal that's Discrediting All Conservative Economists
This is like The Lord Kaldor analytical scandal of the 1960s when the professor was selective to prove his thesis about productivity in rapidly growing economies, i.e. Verdoorn's Law. If one took Japan out of the data set the equations were insignificant as Prof. Bob Rowland was keen to point out.
Econometric analysis that is cross sectional is always fraught with risk that the numbers of outliers will distort a thesis. Eg Japan in a world of low performers.
Many economists were refused PhDs because they included evidence that did not actively support a theory within a thesis. I had that very issue myself, but my honesty prevailed. It was just as important to show the theory was not generalizable. In this way we see that apart from accounting models, generalisations of economic laws fall apart across countries and across time. Tell that to Lord Jevons and his economic cycles arising from sunspot cycles!
Sad to see research that is discredited as a generalisation, but the fact remains that there are very few generalisations that can be made in economics apart from the famous consumption function of Lord Keynes that has stood the test of time in industrial economies. Apply that model to developing economies and the laws fall apart. Horace's for courses!
Don't generalise, just research!

The Internet User's Best Kept Secret
Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth.
