Roberts was educated at the Georgia Institute of Technology (B.S.), the University of Virginia (Ph.D.), the University of California at Berkeley and Oxford University, where he was a member of Merton College.
In 1987, the French government recognized him as "the artisan of a renewal in economic science and policy after half a century of state interventionism" and inducted him into the Legion of Honor.
More doom and gloom from the far left. Roberts has steadily grown farther and farther from reality. His assumptions and facts out of context make for some frightening scenarios but it's more liberal paranoia.
