    Too soon for opinions (even considered opinions). Let’s wait until after July 21, 2025 at least. Someone out there is a big Joseph Stiglitz fan I guess.

      Given the ridiculous freedom of (undeserved) reach that characterizes society today (e.g., all the MAGA assholes on twitter, the non-news that mainstream media has regressed to), I’m grateful to the Guardian for publishing an opinion piece from a very qualified expert. I don’t think someone needs to be a fan to value the timely opinion of a Nobel Laureate in economics on a very important and scary global economics trend. Can we fully account for the effects of Carney’s decision a month later, of course not, that’d be absurd. But too soon to hear an expert weigh in, not just about Canada but more broadly? I don’t follow that logic at all

        This entire paragraph is an appeal to authority that doesn’t even engage the subject at hand.
