The shock of this (about the IMF's criminally stupid double standard) is precisely how it's been completely forgotten amidst what is otherwise an open season to slang economics. This got more notice during the Asian crisis. But now, not only is no one upbraiding the IMF for this, it's gotten the best press in ages for how it beat expectations to come back from the dead.
Great piece.
