I made it clear that unlike Stewart Fist, and his newpaper, The New Australian believes in giving those it criticises a fair go by giving them every opportunity to defend what they have written. The following is Mr Fist's sneering and somewhat abusive response to our offer, which is followed by my detailed response.
Readers can draw their own conclusions.
The 'debate' closes with links to other articles critical of Mr Fist's 'economics'. But in all other human terms he is very narrow . We have crossed swords in the pages of the Australian newspaper, and he has slandered me in his on-line analysis pieces on many occasions. But I don't mind. I would prefer we have healthy debate on these subjects, and I am not noted as a shrinking violet when it comes to criticising others.
