      more like she’s a lobbyist and should regulate her old employers which seems like a conflict of interests and even the vote was kinda sketchy not mentioning her name or nationality…

      The US, meaning the biggest economy in the world by far? I’m sure their economists have no idea what they’re doing.

          Economically? Yes. Better than Europe, BRICS.

          If someone wants to criticize the US for it’s heavy focus on capitalism and assorted social problems, sure, but the US economy is absolutely massive and regularly produces products and concepts adopted internationally.

          The US is currently doing well relative to many other major economies, including Europe. Look at the growth of the US economy vs Europe in the last decade.

          Saying the US doesn’t have good economists is just wrong. It’s one of the things they’re quite good at, for better or worse.
