Since we have been hearing news outlets endlessly touting the empty shelves and supply chain crisis, I thought I would look at the data.

What the hell happened to Dean Baker? I guess everyone is wrong sometimes, but all he has to do is go to a fucking store to see that he is full of bullshit.
Iโve been to grocery stores lately where entire shelves are empty. Just not a thing on them. Other stores have similar shortages. Why do these โdataโ types never believe any real-world evidence and only what their usually-bogus quantifications tell them?
This is a persistent problem with academics, even ones that I like. But just because I like you doesnโt mean I wonโt call BS when youโre spouting it. Thatโs why I am such a popular guy.
