|content=Well let us give economists their due.
 
The most cogent economists on the subject of price indices include:
 
Bert M Balk (Statistics Netherlands)</br>
Carl Christian von Weizsäcker</br>
'''Paul Samuelson''' and S Swamy</br>
Amartya Sen</br>
Franklin Fisher and Karl Shell</br>
and Erwin Diewert (very uneven).

|content=I cannot be objective about my collaborator @PiaMalaney, but I can say that it would be a good idea to review her critique by the [[Boskin Commission|Boskin commissioners]], who I found to represent the “Psst. Just tell us what you need the number to be and we can help you out.” school of economics.
