Larry may be right on some points, but given his past support for and architecting of deregulation of the U.S financial system (including the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act) while he was in the Clinton admin., along with support for the disastrous privatization of the economies of the Post-Soviet states that's lead to massive human suffering and political failure, as well as gambling with Harvard's endowment and losing the school $1.8 billion, triggering layoffs and budget slashing, I think we'd do well to find advice from those with a less predictable and disastrous track record.
