Seems ex-politicians are so much better at telling the truth than current politicians. Peter Orszag, budget director in the Barack Obama/Goldman Sachs administration, finally admitted we came very close to full-scale economic collapse (as if that’s not obvious by now), but he simply can’t resist claiming economic growth is right around the corner.
One out of two ain’t bad, for somebody in the White House. Never mind that’s what he said two months ago, too.
