Comments for Mulligan Tries Again to Blame the Drop in Employment on the Supply Side at http://www.cepr.net , comment 1 to 6 out of 6 comments http://www.cepr.net Thu, 23 May 2013 11:05:17 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19156 Once upon a time, I was in a social psych lecture about an experiment on behavioral differences between people of "normal" weight and those who are overweight. The experiment was designed to rely on self-report of hunger. The prof got all the way through, told us the result, and then grinned and said "and that's when they brought out the sandwiches." His point was that the researchers had gone an extra step to confirm the self-reports of hunger. The weighed the sandwiches before and after to see if what each group ate matched self-reports of hunger. Mulligan never brings out the sandwiches. Over and over, he makes an argument just up to the point he thinks he can claim victory. If he had wanted to know whether his argument was right, he'd have gone the extra step. What he apparent wants if for his readers to think his argument is right, regardless of whether it is. So no sandwiches. He's no alone in this, of course. - kharris Thu, 27 Sep 2012 06:18:43 +0100 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19149 The truth is tightShopping on the web is getting extremely popular now days; people it hard to go for searching so that they prefer online shopping This particular even now results in a directly collection making a slender searching lower leg, however simultaneously commemorate the 'weighted' look [url=http://www.hoganoutlets.it/scarpe-hogan-uomo-c-17.html]Scarpe Hogan Uomo[/url] which copies a new pupAs you can see,they're popular and cozy to wear and have their most famous natural leather or even suede shoes or boots decorated together with sequins this time around (Hint: Some stores are closed in Mondays but a majority of ones open from 3 within the day (chunyan)cheapmontblancpenssale.us - Scarpe Hogan Wed, 26 Sep 2012 16:24:07 +0100 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19144 Dean, I think you have an error in your chart on people without a high school degree. It looks exactly like the other chart, but when I pull the data from BLS it comes out different from what you have posted. The chart for people with a high school degree appears to match exactly. - Barry Wed, 26 Sep 2012 15:47:05 +0100 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19143 Shouldn't this Grade AAA clown at least make some attempt to correlate changes in employment with actual changes in policy? Shouldn't he try to explain why, if extending unemployment induces workers to take a vacation, that did not happen after the extensions under Bush in 2002, 2003, etc.? Or why the collapse of several million jobs over a period measured in months had anything to do with more generous "re-distribution." Or how workers could be satisfied enough with benefits at poverty levels should be enough to offset wages three, four, five and more times that amount? The guy is a clown, clown, clown, and he makes the august New York Times and the hallowed University of Chicago into laughing-stocks. - urban legend Wed, 26 Sep 2012 14:49:31 +0100 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19142 Conservatives should have expected major job increases with the exhaustion of these programs that haven't materialized. Will any of they notice? Probably not, for they would have to think and wouldn't be conservative then. - Lord Wed, 26 Sep 2012 12:57:38 +0100 http://www.cepr.net/index.php/blogs/beat-the-press/mulligan-tries-again-to-explain-the-drop-in-employment-on-the-supply-side#comment-19140 You can supply the NYT with a Mulligan, but he still shoots over par. - David Wed, 26 Sep 2012 10:38:45 +0100
