20171207 The falsely accused contrarian and the bubble people.

Thursday, 7 December, 2017 - 04:47

I’ve been called many things over time – usually by people who wanted to make me feel inferior. Generally, it hasn’t worked: either they are telling the truth, in which case it has no effect or they are lying in which case they are beneath contempt and merely trying to make themselves look important at my expense. But of late, one word has been applied to me more than once: I am, apparently, a contrarian. Actually, I’m not – but if calling me that makes you feel better, go ahead. But you are wrong.

20150710 - Geeks for Greeks - solving the Greek Debt Crisis

Yanis Varoufakis, has resigned. In one of his last pronouncements as Greek Finance Minister, Varoufakis said the idea that Greece could print Drachmas was a fallacy. He is reported as having said "we destroyed all the presses."
