Geithner's Global Central Planning
Wall Street Journal. Local copy Literary analysis of Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner's Letter to the G-20. "Global imbalances," "structural policy," "credible medium-term fiscal targets," "strengthen export performance," "support global demand." What does all this mean anyway? Are these all just BS bingo entries to keep staff from falling asleep at global conferences? Sorry, Mr. Geithner, I know it's your job to mouth these platitudes, but there are real issues to be dealth with and someone might take this stuff seriously.
