Question, Re trying something 'unconventional' re jobs:
Would offshoring some economist jobs to China or India help?
If so, which jobs?
How about this, only those economists who favor less offshoring of other jobs,
should be offshored.
Or, since we can't pick winners, let's let the market decide which kinds of
economists to offshore?
Similarly for all other professions.
Makes a lot of sense really.
How about a preliminary sketch for a cartoon:
MISE EN SCENE:
Show a, how shall I put it, show a scene, say with a stultifera navis, a small sail boat, being embarked at a small pier, vast expanse of ocean stretching to the edge of page, palm trees for calming effect,
depicting only economists, Say Chicago School individuals, Fed folks, and their friends and families, favoring offshoring, being offshored.
"Offshoring" here means being marooned on a small boat drifting toward a foreign shore.
Think perhaps Gilligan's Island, but the 'professors' here are not any where near as handsome as the ones on the show, although have not yet been turned into bonobos for a future cartoon.
I just throw this in, in case there are any contemporary philosophers out there, for whom beauty versus ugliness is a compelling intellectual criterion of judgment.
Theme music: Bali Hai,
THEME MOVIE: South Pacific. What else.
A better alternative, perhaps, just to leave no philosopher's stone unturned, might be to offshore not only economists who favor, or disfavor offshoring, a mere Morton's Fork;
but also those who are undecided or unsure, all three possibilities, what I would call a Ms' Triton, or Trident.
Contrary to the Morton's Fork, however, all three alternatives are good ones.
