Ah yes, I saw about that as I am a member of Daily KoS, I get feeds like that a lot, and there was the fact that on the news, (amazingly), the work the makers of this austerity concept fudged and made mistakes that were let slipped though in the spreadsheet, and they were happy to have the idea accepted, but then Peer review process, it caught the mistake, and that the "cat was out of the bag" that their plan by these Harvard economic professors was so utterly flawed. Austerity, like trickle down economics, is a dead end.
