I don’t think this article is ready to qualify as a GA and I am going to boldly quick fail it, although I would understand if the author wanted a second opinion. I am commenting on the state of the article as of signature time, which can be retrieved
here.
As Chairman, he was the chief economic advisor to President George W. Bush,
His 1995 book, Personnel Economics, was a seminal work,
In a transformative paper in the American Economic Review,
His study also found interesting findings including the fact.
As the chief economic advisor to President Bush, he joined the White House economic team that orchestrated the policy response to the financial crisis and that restructured the financial system. Lazear's team developed the Economic Stimulus Act of 2008 which provided the first rounds of economic stimuli intended to boost the United States economy in the face of unprecedented shocks to the financial and housing sectors.This passage is not sourced, and seems to contradict two standard narratives about the financial crisis, i.e. that the US government made the conscious choice to "save" the existing financial system rather than restructure it, and that its response was primarily engineered by the Bernanke/ Geithner/ Paulson trio. For instance, he is mentioned only once in the Financial Crisis Inquiry Report and not mentioned at all in Tooze, Adam (2018). Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World. Penguin.
