I read with interest the rediff interview & was impressed with his clarity of thought & ideas. His work on unemployment,taxation with emphasis on psychology of consumer behaviour is bound to have impact on policy making in the US and hopefully some day in India too. Congratulations to Chetty & may his tribe prosper. Thanx, Prashant, for the link to the brilliant Raj Chetty.

You may have to do more research on your own into their backgrounds, speeches etc to find out. @ Patel:

Does anyone here know of any websites or forums I can go to that discuss the position american presidential candidates have towards improved Indo-American relations? I am a voter and would like the next president to continue improving ties between the two nations. Patel I apologize for moving off topic.

No! He could have achieved the same in India. Except for access to proprietary data (which would cost some money), everything else related to economic analysis and instant communication with academics around the world is possible sitting in India. I might have agreed with you with respect to research in sciences requiring heavy installed investment. Times have changed. Um! No! He could have achieved the same in India.

They had picked a few a year or two back. Congratulations to Raj Chetty and hope he can achieve big things in life.
