| In the fall of 2007, when the U.S. economy first seemed in peril, I began answering reader queries here on the Business Desk. I still do so, but this page has expanded to include posts from eminent economists, "far-flung correspondents," and a variety of voices that have intriguing and/or useful things to say about economics, broadly defined. Please feel encouraged to respond to any and all of them. |
« Previous Entry | Main | Next Entry » Economics Comedy in Beijing: Part Two 
This penultimate post from Our Man in Beijing, standup economist Yoram Bauman, chronicles a true test: doing jokes in front of a Chinese audience. The responses are instructive, as are Yoram's responses during the Q&A. His answer about horses and Mercedes alone is worth watching. Don't miss part one, where Yoram presents his comedy to an English-speaking audience in Beijing, or his recent opinion piece in The New York Times, "The Dismal Education."
