I think the economist magazine has got jaded and old it is no longer the authority on world economics it once was. It seems to be an anglo centric publication, whatever America or Britain does is good, whatever Europe or anybody else does is bad. It has failed to predict or point to any of the big economic developments over the last 5 years. It failed to predict the falling dollar, rising euro, rising commodities. It spectacularly failed to spot the rise of oil 18 months ago. IT only seems to comment on events long after they happen and long after other publications have put their neck on the line to tell people what is going on. It appears to be a cheerleader for both George Bush's economic and political policies. In other words it appears to be a cheerleader for the status quo, and if the status quo changes then they cheerlead the new status quo.
