Krugman’s “real solution” was Hitler’s “final solution.”

The liberal solution to every problem is higher taxes and death.

Hey, Paulie, why don't we just have all employers wire their employee's paychecks to Washington, and Congress can forward whatever fraction they feel like to the actual wage earner?

Does Krugman actually believe a VAT will pass the new House of Representatives?

What I meant is that:
“(a) health care costs will have to be controlled, which will surely require having Medicare and Medicaid decide what theyre willing to pay for not really death panels, of course, but consideration of medical effectiveness and, at some point, how much were willing to spend for extreme care...”
He’s lying. When you decide how to spend your own health care dollars, that’s one thing. When the government decides how to spend it, that’s a death panel.

Does ANYONE believe that the “solution” to the overspending that politicians have been doing for about 45 years is to give them more money to spend?

Great idea! I hear that is what is being proposed in England. They have such a dynamic economy there is no reason it shouldn’t work here as well. /s

Medicare is underfunded by $72 Trillion (with a T).
It makes SS look like a robust program.
Significant rationing will occur no matter who is in charge or what we term it. It’s guaranteed because such a high percentage of the post 65 population will be unable to afford healthcare in addition to Medicare.

Economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman says the only way the U.S. will get its debt crisis under control is by the use of "death panels" and a national sales tax. Cut spending, trigger economic growth, and live longer.
I'm being draconian I know.

There are not a lot people’s demise that I will savor like a fine wine, an aged cognac, or a really good cigar.
Krugman is one of them.

Krugman best watch it. I don't even want people talking about death panels ~ not even theoretically. Advocates would seem to be making targets out of themselves ~ probably needlessly ~ because with the Second Amendment, and a sufficient number of suitable firearms available, people in even their 90s can GET EVEN WITH THE BATARDES!
Krugman is just getting dangerous people riled up.

I thought that supporters of this denied that there were death panels.
