If this were just a single article by someone trying to promote his candidate, I wouldn't bother. But Busler keeps writing articles like this month after month, full of sound and fury supporting Trump, but always distorted and spun like a top. But he also promotes himself as an economist, and he is not- his advanced degrees are in business, and he is a professor of finance. If you read several of his articles, it is clear that he stands on the far right in political philosophy. This would not be a problem except that his articles that portend to be about economics are just political op-eds. His articles are not sound economics, and he needs to be called out.

And no, I have no intention of trying to persuade any tRump supporter. I only have so many years on this Earth, and my time is too precious to waste on pointless exercises. I'm not trying to persuade anybody, just refuting an article and its author.
