We’re going to model ourselves after the French economy now?
(see my profile page)
Oxymoron = Renowned French economist
I thought they were going to say Paul Krugman.
Obama needs advice from French faculty lounge Marxists on how to give our money away to the 3d World faster.
This person may be the reason BHO2 has been beating the ‘dead horse’ of gun control as a smoke screen.
From WikipediaZZ:
“Esther Duflo (born October 25, 1972) is a Socialist French economist, Co-Founder and Director of the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab, and Professor of Poverty Alleviation and Development Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Duflo is an NBER Research Associate,[2] serves on the board of the Bureau for Research and Economic Analysis of Development (BREAD),[3] and is Director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research’s development economics program.[4]
Her research focuses on microeconomic issues in developing countries, including household behavior, education, access to finance, health, and policy evaluation. Together with Abhijit Banerjee, Dean Karlan, Michael Kremer, John A. List, and Sendhil Mullainathan, she has been a driving force in advancing field experiments as an important methodology to discover causal relationships in economics.

“Microeconomics”: oh boy, the very thing that BHO2’s mother was so keen on promoting in Third World countries. A type of economic policy that promotes indebtedness - keeping the poverty stricken forever poor.
BHO2 is a Marxist-Leninist. He is only a Muslim or Christian when it is poltically expedient.
HAHAHAHAHA. Incredible.
Does anyone here have Putin's number.... I need to have a chat with him.
“who was once named one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world”
Just one more reason to know that she is nothing more than a cheese-eating surrender monkey.
Why should they bother? Their man obama has it covered.
How is a non American joining his team?
The fascisti of France tried to nail Depardieu with a 75% tax rate, but he lit out for Belgium and also received a Russian passport directly from Putin to avoid taxes.
This is where we are headed, 75% tax rates, and confiscation of personal retirement funds ( IRAs, and institutional like TIAA Cref).
Poor Esther. I am afraid she will be meeting her Waterloo
if she comes to the United States.
LLS
will he be as much a “genius” as timmy geithner was?
Is that kinda like 'Renowned Cubs Manager' ?
Any question about Bowbama wanting a European socialist type government? 75% tax, here we come!
...and she never grew up. How sad.
They should start impeachment proceedings for treason if he ever nominates her.
Why would we give control of any portion of our government over to a foreigner (Yes I know obama is one too but the liberals and welfare junkies gave us him)
When is one of the Secret Service going to honor their oath to defend the Constitution?
Pray for obama. Psalm 109:8-9
Why would we need the French to help develop US policy? I’m really stumped.
