I should have noted that the text of the "boxes" on each of the famed economists
accompanying the article were by Romer, not the author of the article.

I wrote:

A few years ago, Paul Romer was on the cover of, I think it was "Forbes, Jr.",
apparently a special Forbes Mag for college kids. The picture was accompanied by
something like "Future Nobel Prize?" As part of the article, there were a few
paragraphs each on Keynes, Schumpeter, Marshall, and I think either Marx or
Smith.  It was all fairly infuriating, first because of the omissions, then the
tone, and also the content.

First prize I think still goes to Stiglitz and Shapiro's "Equilibrium
Unemployment as a Worker Discipline Device" in the American Economic Review
where the term "reserve army" was used, with no mention of Marx in the article
or bibliography.
