“Giving money and power to Government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys” (P.J.O’Rourke)

Mankiw’s 10 principles: translated version

Greg Mankiw points to this funny translation of his well-known 10 principles:

1. Choises are bad

2. Choises are really bad

3. People are stupid

4. People aren’t that stupid

5. Trade can make everyone worse off

6. Governments are stupid

7. Governments aren’t that stupid

8. Blah blah blah

9. Blah blah blah

10. Blah blah blah

Worth watching. If this guy just chose to forget about 4), 6) and 7) he could run for Congress. The Dems would love to have him running, and if he just took a pro-life stance so would many Republicans.
