Olympic Fever

I don't know if you've heard that China is hosting the summer Olympics this year, but with less than a month to go to the games the Olympic promotion and propaganda machine is in full swing. Even economists being interviewed on the nightly news (about inflationary prospects) are sporting Beijing 2008 shirts. This one was still sporting the "newly unfolded out-of-package" creases. No doubt the state media provided the shirt for the interview.
