WHY THE REINHART-ROGOFF ERROR MATTERS

For the policy wonks and the political-economy geeks out there. From Truthout we get Professor Bob Pollin, co-director of Political Economy Research Institute, discussing the policy implications behind the Reinhart-Rogoff errors. He also explains why austerity is a mistake ...


In a few words, the Reinhart-Rogoff errors helped keep a failed policy in place, which people are now paying for in destroyed lives.

So when will Reinhart, Rogoff, and the politicians who built their careers using this flawed study(like Paul Ryan) start contributing to repairing the lives they've destroyed?
