optimism rules

[Jim Devine <jdevine@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From a rag sent to me (THE TEACHING ECONOMIST, Spring 2000, issue 18):

"Now that the U.S. economy has achieved its longest expansion on record,
macroeconomists are in danger of becoming underemployed, like the Maytag
repairman sitting by the phone waiting for a call."
