[QUOTE="LibertyTurns, post: 170088, member: 789"] Maybe not the best article ever written on the Volcker legacy, but fairly accurate from what I remember. There was a great deal of sophisticated analysis conducted in this period- Friedman, Laffer were the two from that era I'd most trust with development of economic policies. They get it. Volcker had some nice theories but if not riding the coattails of Reagan he would have been just another disappointing Fed Chairman. There's more to economic policy that just expanding & collapsing the money supply & from what Volcker learned from his days at the Fed I'm not sure he ever got it. Greenspan atleast acknowlegded at the end his miscalculations & identified lessons learned, Volcker seemed to ignore them. At least that's my opinion.
