The only amusing thing about Summers/Epstein is this journalist referring to Summers as a "leftwing academic". LOL.
Also, how did it take so many so long to peg Summers as a wrong'un? Already in 1991 he was trumpeting the economic logic of "dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest wage country".
