Bunches of Economists Speculate about 2016
#2
Sort of like the old saying that "economists predicted 8 out of the last 5 recessions". Interesting read but, you're right, everyone had their own opinions.

I'm not sure that there's a set of empirical facts to predict anything as large and complex as a national, let alone world, economy. For example, sometimes tax cuts stimulate spending and other times they stimulate deleveraging. Too many variables to come up with with a definitive answer.
