Jason Smith — Letter to Dirk Bezemer

Summary:
It appears I have to attempt to contact Dirk Bezemer directly for people to take my claims seriously that Bezemer has misquoted and fabricated quotes in his papers claiming that some economists using "accounting" or "flow of funds" models were able to predict the global financial crisis and widespread recession.
