“There was a young economist who swallowed a fly; I don’t know why he swallowed a fly, perhaps he’ll explain the current economy, or maybe he’ll cry!”🎶🎶
You could have tried a trout to catch the fly...maintaining your pescatarian diet and avoiding the ultimate outcome for the old lady after eating the horse. 😉
If it is any consolation, the same thing happened to Judy Garland in the middle of a Forest Hills outdoor concert in 1962 (?) when a moth flew into her mouth and she tucked it in her cheek—as reported in Show magazine.Good example of “The show must go on.” Professors are as tough as most performers.
Economist braves attack by fly, keeps talking about the Fed, unlike Kevin Warsh.
En una boca cerrada no entran moscas. Kevin Warsh can take that advice. Donald Trump really should take that advice. As a professional educator you cannot maintain a closed mouth, but you can keep a bottle of water close at hand during interviews. Congratulations on your quick thinking. The best teachers incorporate an unexpected turn of events into the lecture. On the upside, the free publicity might boost your profile and lead to more economically literate Americans.
Real economists with substack channels like Nobel laureate Paul Krugman don’t hide comments because they don’t agree with the comments made in the section.
Who's mooching...paid for the privilege to read Justin and he offers the comment section like all substack channels. Why isn't your comment considered freeloading speech. He has decided to control content that he doesn't like by hiding comments.
Why indeed. A great question to ponder on an economics site. I guess the free market answer would be that you have the right to post whatever you like, and Justin has the right to hide whatever he doesn't like.
Freedom of speech applies to what the government can do to curtail speech, not private citizens. Maybe you should take a civics lesson before you criticize. Just makes you look ignorant.

It says so much about your character, and intellect, that you can laugh at yourself and seamlessly tie it into your subject matter. Brilliant!!
Entertainer but not so much an economist who is open to discussing America’s debt trap
Economist Faces DOJ Investigation For Harming Former MAGAt
How is it that none of those journalists mentioned that your next trick will be to swallow a spider?
May have to up it to a moth next time
You're not the first economist I know who swallowed a fly on live TV -- you're the first person I know who's done it!

Good recovery!
That’s how you get headline news!!
I cannot remember my monthly fee but you can now charge me more !

Perhaps he is just not in favor of allowing someone to co-opt the comment section for their own agenda.
Let's see I think I've heard of something called freedom of speech.
But is it really free if you're mooching the platform. I think that would be called freeloading speech.
But what is he afraid of that he wants to hide comments? What is he running away from and doesn't want readers to see?

Amen but what is he running away from?
