    You don’t see the clusterfuck of a graph on the right?

    The analysis is that there’s is no correlation. It’s an excuse for economists to push whatever is best for their self interests. You saw the analysis and didn’t like it. If you see something different, please share. You’re part of “the comments”.

      The graph on the right only shows that more variables impact unemployment than just interest rates alone, which you obviously know. It doesn’t prove or disprove the model on the left, which is a pretty simplified relationship. Monetary policy, like adjusting interest rates, was demonstrated to be quite effective just recently with the Fed successfully keeping inflation and employment under control with these tools over the past few years.
