As one who associates Volker with Reagan & supply side economics & the golden years of conservatism, I'd hate to see him associated with the current group of UN goons. Resign, Paul...

Volcker would object to being associated with "supply-side economics". Although Volker worked for the Treasury during JFK's administration, and was instrumental in designing the tax cuts passed then, he doesn't agree with the often-made equation of the JFK and Reagan programs. I believe he writes about it in his book Changing Fortunes. And it's an interesting sidelight that no Reagan economist used the term "supply-side", that was mostly a journalistic phrase promoted by some of the WSJ writers.
