[From article]
"Hapless Ben Bernanke is on an unlucky streak that he partly brought upon himself. Hopeless Joe Biden -- in case you've forgotten, he has "Vice President of the US" on his business cards -- is just a sad, sorry guy.
[. . .]
When talking about the financial crisis caused by Wall Street, Bernanke noted that this was "possibly [the worst] in the history of the United States."
[. . .]
My first point: this is dishonest. My second point: Biden should know that this is already being done. It's called "geometric weighting," has been used for more than a decade (and written about in this column extensively) and does absolutely nothing except cheat senior citizens out of their Social Security cost of living increases.
