I’ve vented my disappointement, anger and sadness at the election of Kevin Rudd in real life. I haven’t said much online unfortunately, because I’ve been fighting the good fight elsewhere.
However I will link to the Economist’s analysis of Kevin Rudd’s speech on Frederich Hayek, which goes to show Rudd’s lack of economic analysis skills. Their take on Rudd is here.
In a nutshell, they think his speech was rubbish, wrong and “nonsense”. We might be using those very words within 12 months when the gloss has come off and we realise how inept he and his team are.
