At least that’s what the writers of The Simpsons are predicting. (See upper left-hand corner.) Their Economics Prize predictions: Jagdish Bhagwati, Avinash Dixit, Bengt Holmstrom, and Elhanan Helpman. (via Marginal Revolution)

Ha! Now Krugman can be jealous. He thought he’d win the physics Nobel for his interstellar-trade paper. Olly must have been nominated for his famous early paper “A Comparative-Institutional Analysis of Alternative Schroedinger Universes.”

Olly studied physical chemistry and thermodynamics at MIT as an undergrad. But I’m sure that the Prize will be for his pioneering work in econotribology.

I think he should set his sights on the Peace Prize. Next paper: “A Fundamental Transformation for the Middle East.”

Didn’t we just have Nobel Prize winners in economics? Seriously, I wish it were only every two years. I am sick of all the fuss EACH YEAR about path-breaking ideas. There are very few path-breaking ideas.
Personally, I’d like the living economists to compete with the dead ones for Nobel prizes.
