There is even a bad-boy-making-good angle to Nadav's story. In his youth, he was wild and unpopular. He would borrow kibbutz tractors and take joy-rides into the fields--a dangerous past-time with Syrian snipers in the hills and both the Lebanese and Syrian borders nearby. And few of his age-group respected him, despite his obvious ability. Rooms would fall quiet and slowly empty when he entered...
...expanded the money supply at an annual rate of 7.7% so far this year, against only 2.2% during the 1966 tight-money squeeze.
