Yes, Stan Fischer Would Be an Excellent Fed Chair...

Neil Irwin beats the drum. My favorite quote from Stan addressing the great and good of finance, from 2000's Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City's Jackson Hole Conference:

There is nothing in the ILO's [labor standards] principles that we cannot and very little that we should not be eager to endorse, all of us.

The only point against Stan is that he is turning 70 this year, and it is not fair to give him another 70-hour a week job unless he really wants it…
