An economist who studied at Harvard and Oxford then. He also worked in investment firms and I'm sorry but you won't become governor of a central bank or a C-suite at Brookfield assets management by being a left wing economist, best case you'll become a college teacher.
I know you understand that that's not inherently a bad thing, either. I know this because you, rightfully, point out
So, why all of the wildly intellectually dishonest labeling? Why is "banker" being thrown around, when it's not true? And why is the follow-up "PhD economist"?
Dude worked for Goldman Sachs, and y'all are trying to get your panties in a bunch over his doctorate?
That's kind of pathetic, weak sauce, dude.
He studied in universities that train those who rule the world and you don't think that affected his political opinions? Get real buddy, it's all part of what makes him just another Liberal politician that doesn't actually cares the majority because he's got nothing in common with them. His professional experience is just the cherry on top.
Hell, he was the managing director for investment banking at Goldman Sachs, he might not have had the banker title, he just managed them!
From the get go my point has been that with him at the helm the Liberal party will never be considered left wing since he's just another leader from the same schools and professional sector as a bunch of previous ones that dilapidated the welfare state. Prove me wrong.
What is the point of calling him a banker? What agenda are you pushing? Have you even thought about it? Or are you just mouthing dog whistles for fun?
Because whether the have-never-been-a-workers-party Liberals are left-wing or not today really has nothing to to do with Carney's resume, so you're pushing some kind of billshit.
Prove me wrong.
I'm sorry I used the wrong term to designate a person who used to manage investment bankers, and who worked for two central banks, my point still stands. Are you fucking happy now?
