This article seems to be written with a view to rehabilitating a purveyor of fringe conspiracy theories who has been widely dismissed by the mainstream press and responsible figures in economics. Many of the sources cited are also known outlets for fringe conspiracy theories. -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:40, 10 April 2014 (UTC)Reply
I am removing the POV tag after some heavy editing. Many thanks to user:Geogene for help with the editing. -Ad Orientem (talk) 16:28, 12 August 2014 (UTC)Reply
Conversely the 'conspiracy' labels were sourced to a blog by someone (who from an admittedly brief bit of reaserch) unknown, and a forum. Neither of which are acceptable for use in a BLP. As it stands now, the biography is a stub. Anything that seeks to paint the subject as 'a purveyor of fringe conspiracy theories who has been widely dismissed by the mainstream press and responsible figures in economics.' will need actual strong reliable sources to say that.
