“Four of the best — and often worst — words in the policy game are ‘I told you so.’ They’re the best for obvious reasons: Seeing your advice and predictions proven right after having publicly gone out on a limb is always a great feeling — one certainly not limited to policy. Those words can sting, however, when bad things predictably happened because policymakers didn’t take your original advice. Such is the case, alas, with Intel and U.S. industrial policy.” (08/27/25)
