The economists in the Obama administration suggested that the stimulus package that they recommended in early 2008 would keep unemployment under eight percent. Even though they did not show us their analysis, we all know that it was flawed because unemployment reached ten percent in 2010. Were their econometric models improperly specified? Were their assumptions about the economy wrong? Is Keynesian macroeconomic theory wrong? Was there bias in their theory about how the stimulus would work?
