Seeing as how the guy didn't even come close to a thoughtful analysis of the recession, and mainly presented his case in terms of empty soundbites, I see little reason to take him seriously. It's one thing to have predicted something, and it's another to actually have some solid reasoning behind your prediction.
Although I'm only evaluating this guy from a 3-minute video clip, he sounds like the kind of generic, intellectually irresponsible pundit that Fox loves to interview on their shows because he can effectively spread fear and misinformation. I especially love how the anchor chick insists that "this guy's been right many, many times before, so you can't just take this with a grain of salt". Congratulations, Fox. You continue to live up to your reputation of providing biased, sensationalistic bullshit for idiots to lap up.
Where's this guy's reasoning? And how do we know he hasn't made at least as many inaccurate predictions in the past? He really sounds like he's just out there to made grandiose claims and stir people up.
