I refuse to respond in kind and therefore will not be sharing this article. Are they wrong? Yes. Does this mean they are idiots? No. Rather, this means that they are working on different premises than I am, using different sets of information for reference, and have been trained under a radically different dogma. I'm all for steady-state economies and perhaps even controlled efforts to shrink the economy, but I don't think we're going to get closer to that through mean-spirited attacks on the individuals who perpetuate the opposing worldview.
