The prize is the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel.
It was not one of the Nobel Prizes established and endowed by Alfred Nobel, is not an official Nobel Prize, and should not be treated or referred to as one.
Also, Paul Krugman has one. That prize has already been tainted.
The Internet is a fad that will die out in 10 years.
The government can just buy its own bonds. Inflation, what's that?
Exactly. It was created after Nobel's death, against his wishes, and draws its prize money from a separate money fund.
Not that the "true" Nobel prizes have much credibility left either, at least not the peace prize.
What are you talking about? Obama brought about world peace!
Are you related to a knife toting rat that scurries around here?
I don’t think so…
What the hell does Wolverine know about economics?
He worked as a Canadian lumberjack for several decades. Obviously he is an expert in the labor market!
He's been alive for a long time. He's seen how the world works.
Bernanke, the guy who said 2008 wouldn't happen?
Yep and won it for banking and financial crises
Next up, the award for fiscal responsibility, awarded to Lehman Brothers.
I'm still under the impression that the criteria for them change every year, and that obama only won it because in his year it was for "who can murder the most syrian children with drones".
Sacrificial counts towards moloch?
