    I was down with Danny O'Neil's whinny appeal, and was willing to overlook his effeminate reference to the brown lady PhD being 'mean'. But going to Nebraska classy was too much, so ...

    She has a doctorate in economics...lol we should believe her

    This is why economists can't have nice things.

    P.S. her doctoral was granted by an Economics department that exists as part of the "management college" and among other gems from their doctoral program, "An undergraduate degree in economics is not required."
    I'm not the guy to prop up NC Staye academis, but PhD in Econ didn't really require an undergrad Econ defeee does it?

    I think math majors and other people with quants go on to get them too right?

    Axing for a fren.
    Fair point, but her undergrad was a computer science degree from mumbia dot u...

    and having a math/quant degree and a non-rigorous econ background is how you get hedge fund managers that say there will never be a recession again because they've mathematically figured out the economy. It's the economy 2.0! Nevermind all that well rounded theory stuff, we've got statistics that tell us what we want to hear ;)

    Anyways, I'll get off my favored science's soapbox. There's justifiable disagreement in Economics but she's at an end of an academic spectrum analogous to theoretical physicists that posit mathematical proofs of god. It's dogma with funny math to justify it at best.

    I heard he gave around 2 billion while alive. Probably a nice foundation to carry on after death.

    Seattle elected this gal. Good luck the rest of the way

    I was living in Seattle when she got elected. I was the only conservative where I worked and the only conservative in my small apartment building. I was talking with a neighbor and I said that Sawant sounds like a radical nut. And my neighbor said how exciting though would it be to elect an Indian woman to that position.

    Was your neighbor wrong?

    That's helpful.

    Traveling right now but, if you don't mind, in the next few days would like to bounce some questions off you in this topic in PM for the kid. She's kicking this around for grad school; hence my question.
