So, if you don't have a degree in economics, you can't have a thought about economics, huh?

Guess that leaves out both Adam Smith (philosophy) and Karl Marx (sociology/philosophy). What's left of your idiot spectrum?

No, just that Mr. Wanniski's "thoughts" are predictably biased and non-objective.
They shouldn't be confused with sound economic theory.

Adam Smith did quite well.
Yet since he predates the development of the modern science of economics, it's hardly a fair comparison.

Karl Marx on the other hand... yeah, I'd say he's just as disreputable as Wanniski.
