Stiglitz has given similar talks at other universities, driven by what
he called the Bush administration's "phenomenally bad" stewardship of
the U.S. economy.
Stiglitz said Bush had "squandered" the surpluses left by the Clinton
administration.
"It has been one of the worst performances of an economic
administration ever."

Expert: Bush is disaster
By DAVE JANOSKI
SCRANTON -
For a Nobel Prize-winning economist who regularly expounds on
"information assymetries," "Pareto inefficiencies" and "sovereign
debt," Joseph Stiglitz has a surprisingly concise and blunt take on
the state of the U.S. economy.
"Bush is to blame," the Columbia University professor concluded in an
interview Friday at the University of Scranton.
