Talk:Jean-Baptiste Say

message: Removed this sentence, creates confusion since there is no justification:
"The argument referred to as Say's Law was heavily criticised by John Maynard Keynes and Keynesian economists."
:I'm not sure I see the problem - my own take is that Keynes singled out Say's Law for special attention, and a large part of Keynes' career rested on points that are direct contradictions of Say's law. My Alt Account 00:56, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

message: There really should be a "criticisms" section for this article, since Say's Law has been panned by so many economists.  I remember seeing a video course on PBS which tore into it using Keynesian theory.  Also, a "criticisms" section helps to foster deeper understanding of these such issues, as it helps shed light on a vigorous and, in some ways, continuing debate among intellectuals.

thread_title:  Criticisms 

message: According to the article cited below Say was not in school (or at the very least there is no evidence he was in school) while in Croydon but was renting a room in a school since he couldn't find anything better. The article is heavily based on Say's unpublished autobiography.
"Lodging in a school, at his age, was not to his taste. Say is unlikely to have attended classes: he and Horace were (presumably paying) lodgers whose room was probably a garret room. As Bisset liked to practise his French, Say, feeling his efforts to learn English were being thwarted, may have had another reason to find the lodgings unsatisfactory, giving him a further excuse for leaving Croydon sooner rather than later"
