GTFO Bronson, you may be educated, but obviously you haven't learned shit.

Wake up, man.

How am I downplaying him?

He was about as wrong a person can possibly be in regards to the most important economic event any of us will ever see in our lives. Why are you now pretending like this man is beyond critique?

Reread, only this time assume the meaning of my ambiguous statement was that the WSJ downplayed him, and the "you" was 3rd person.

Also, I'm not saying you're wrong about that.. I honestly don't know enough about it.

That being said, it doesn't make his quote in the picture in the OP any less true.
