|content=You mean the Friedman money and banking seminar where [https://x.com/haralduhlig @haralduhlig] was the principal critic who then started to understand only after the seminar? | |||
I’d be happy to do this with Harald on board. It might motivate us to finish our work that happened after the seminar. | |||
I don’t know you @florianederer. But I do know you as a consistantly bad actor. As you may know, the most famous Chicago seminar was that of Coase. Where the seminar became famous *because* Chicago got it wrong. And it took much longer to see the argument. | |||
Harald got it wrong during the seminar. And I also know that Chicago, at least historically, eventually usually gets it right. But I’d be happy to structure a bet that would penalize your being a bad actor. | |||
I write this not because I care about your opinion. But because Cliff is a colleague. And, at least here, you are a troll. Let’s figure out if there is a mutually agreeable bet that gives me an ability to inflict a cost on this behavior of yours. | |||
And one last point. [[Ken Arrow|Arrow]] and '''Samuelson''' were both supportive of this work. But perhaps you see what they do not. Who knows. You are certainly very sure of your position. As am I. | |||
One of us is wrong. | |||

|content=Let me be clear. This post is not targeted at foreign born STEM. [My apologies to those of you who know me well on this point for decades. But it is always deliberately misinterpreted by those who seek to depress salaries.] | |||
Read carefully, it's target is American STEM employers who lie as a way of life about the quality of our own STEM people in order to gain access to foreign labor. | |||
My contention is that we destroy American STEM which is the best in the world because it is expensive, irreverant and high risk/high return. | |||
If you want to go shopping abroad for future americans who are expensive, irreverant and high risk/high return, let me know and I will design your labor market. | |||
But I will never put up with Americans who misportray just how good U.S. STEM really is in order gain access to oceans of plient low variance high value labor. | |||

|content=Woah. Slow down. Because then we would be stuck with American STEM workers. Ya know, those lazy, stupid, unmotivated can't do, low-IQ pseudoscientific stoners who play video games all day long and can't be bothered to crack a book. | |||
It would be like being stuck with R. Feynman, J Watson, M Gell-Mann, K. Arrow, G. Hopper, JR Oppenheimer, S. Weinberg, '''P Samuelson''', M. Nirenberg, J Lederberg, S. Smale, D. Mumford, J Doudna, S. Coleman, B. McClintock, and M. Ptashne all over again. And we can all agree that we need the best and the brightest. | |||
