Laurence Kotlikoff is thinking of another run for the presidency after his failures in the 2012 election in running for the presidency on a third party ticket. this time around Dr Kotlikoff think it will be different and that more people know his name. he has been teaching at Boston University for the longest time and often makes hundreds of appearances on various Youtube sites, websites , podcasts, and conferences pushing his books and his purple economic plan that should draw both Republicans and Democrats. In addition to his role as an economics professor, Kotlikoff is the author of 15 books and a regular columnist for Bloomberg.com. He has also served as a consultant to Fortune 500 companies, foreign governments, central banks and international agencies like the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. he is ranked among the worlds most influential economists but this didn't help him back in 2012 when he got a hundred and thirty one votes in the 2012 election.
This had to be a humbling experience for the prestigious Dr Kotlikoff s he was convinced his plan would set America back on the road to prosperity. Dr Kotlikoff was pissed he lost big time as his plan included new, progressive consumption and inheritance taxes, a voucher-based health care system, and a mandatory private-savings system for future retirees. Only a Dr Craig Paul Roberts appeared more on the internet pushing his own ideas and agenda than Dr Kotlikoff and Laurence often sits in his Boston University office wondering what the fuck he can do to get his message out there as he has no real political office experience. Laurence Kotlikoff has yet to decide if he will give it another go for another third-party run for the presidency knowing all to well that his chance of winning is about as equal to Abraham Lincoln winning a third term.
