MACROECONOMICS / IMF / G-20 : Nobel Economist Joe Stiglitz On Davos And G-20.

                     COMMENTARY

      This newsblog's editor is fascinated by macroeconomics.
      Apparently...so are several regular visitors.
      Somewhat surprisingly...a post/link about the recent Davos meeting...got dozens of views.
      So...here's an opinion piece for them...by leftist Nobel economist Joseph Stiglitz.
      After attending another Davos...Stiglitz sums up his impression of the world's economy...as leaderless...aimless...and complacent.
      While the IMF's Lagarde talks about inequality...it demands austerity chic...in Greece and elsewhere.
