The Dynamic Duo: Keynes and Mankiw.


Robin:
"After fifty years of additional progress in economic science, The General Theory is an outdated book. … We are in a much better position than Keynes was to figure out how the economy works."
Batman:
"How can I accept a doctrine which sets up as its bible, above and beyond criticism, an obsolete economic textbook [Marx's Das Kapital] which I know to be not only scientifically erroneous but without interest or application to the modern world?"

Holy birds of a feather, Batman!
