But not Friedman who created the modern economics we live by. What does that say about your real IQ. It's no surprise you cant participate here. Your head is stuck playing trivial pursuit!!
Yeah, no, the guy whose ideas created this mess is not on my Christmas card list.

- Edward, what in the world are you babbling about?
For a serious and clear analysis my absolute favourite is Joseph Stiglitz.What are your sorces for econimic insights . What do you like or dislike of them .

I like to contrast them with the view points of Robert P Murphy and the economists of the Austrian school.
Steve Keen is bright economist who predicted the 2008 crisis long before it happened, so it is also an obligatory source for economic insight.
I like some of the articles from Paul Krugman, though his analysis is not nearly as polished as Stiglitz's.
Richard d'Wolf gives some very interesting lectures which I follow eagerly every month.
Finally I like Peter Schiff's and Max Keiser's shows ( they are a bit more theatrical , but interesting ) .

J K Galbraith. For being Keynesian when everyone else who called themselves Keynesian.....wasn't.
Adam Smith. Because who doesn't love Adam Smith?
Hyman Minsky. His financial instability hypothesis explains everything. It explains why intuitive economics don't work when there is a financial system.
Knut Wicksell. All money is credit. You heard it there first.
and A C Pigou, for being a good sport and giving his name to Pigovian taxes.
