Ben Bernanke, Meet Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Dave Price
Just in case people have forgotten what a real theocracy is like, here's a piece that illustrates one of the little nuanced differences:
Iran’s hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told the latest cabinet meeting in the Iranian capital that “if we were permitted to hang two or three persons, the problems with the stock exchange would be solved for ever”, according to a Tehran-based newspaper.You say tomato, I say tomahto...
Frustrated with the inability of his economic advisers and experts to come up with any solution, Ahmadinejad told them that the only way out of the current stock exchange and financial market problems was to “frighten” speculators by hanging two or three of them.
