I think these guys are getting REALLY desperate to paint a rosey picture of the economy these days.
Here's a couple of economists speculating about how Keynesian economics can be used to stimulate the economy when one of them suggests that if scientists were to mistakenly discover an alien threat to the planet, the whole economy would turn around in just 18 months.

You should change the title to "Economists use alien invasion scenario to save economy".. the current one is a little misleading as far as the interview process.. it does get you thinking maybe they know something we don't? Then again, who is that guy? Not really anyone important and IF the government was really going to stage a fake alien invasion, YouTube would have absolutely NO idea... imho. Good post though!
