Have you published on this -- in your "hundreds of papers" I mean! Please feel free to cut and paste those into the discussion.

Your original claim was that you were an economics professor. Now you admit you're not quite there. Most of us find it incredulous that you would even be close to achieving this exalted position.
And what are you? Somebody who hasn't disproved any economic statement I have said.

I never said I published anything. I said "after many publications," which in my case means I've read them.

Here's the info for earnings:

Somebody who isn't claiming to be someone he isn't, perhaps?

"I am indeed a student Professor (official in 2 years) who has posted more informative information than you have. What have you done? Say these hyperbolic statements which have more no basis?"

You dwell on non-economic facts.

There is no big deal b/t saying you are a student professor only to be more specific. Still know alot more than you on this issue, obviously.

They are not contradictions. I started reading publications well before I ended my major. 4 years is enough to accumulate alot of academic knowledge no matter the age.

I think you are just mad because you can't argue in economics, so you resort to an anal discussion on who I am. I already said who I was. Now who are you?

He told you. The President of the US. It shouldn't be a problem for you to actually provide proof of our credentials. I do when I provide tech support. Hell I threw up my resume from time to time on a thread or two. I can even have my certifications emailed to those wanting to know if I'm actually certified with no problem. You can do the same. It's not that hard you know.

You claimed a special position in this thread as a well published (100s of papers, no less!) professor of economics at UF (no idea which one that is -- perhaps you can enlighten us?).

Your claim is simply not true, is it?

I never said I published 100's of papers. Please find that quote.
