Should the Fed Use "Paul the Octopus" to Decide Interest Rates?

His strike rate is 100% thus far. He’s gotta be better than the Fed committee…

Link.

But they’ve already got a decision-making system in place. Why switch now?

I don’t see why not.

No, the octopus clearly has too much backbone and integrity to work for the Fed.

He missed with Brasil and Argentina. Still a pretty accurate system. He could be the living proof that Mises’ argument for the impossibility of calculation under socialism could be wrong

Paul the Octopus would be a much better FED chairman then anything we’ve had. At least the octopus will just chill and swim around in his tank, and won’t ruin the economy.

Predicting a Spain win when Spain is mostly the Barca first team is not an accomplishment.

You think the octopus knew that? :stuck_out_tongue:

Maybe they hooked him up with Gol TV.
