Krugman just knows who signs his pay check.
I haven’t read it yet, but reading the headline, my first thought is, “this is gonna be good.” We’ll see.
I remember him. He’s the asshat who was dead flat wrong about every prediction he made about Trump’s economics.
Paul Krugman...an economist who tells everyone that what they see in real life economics is not what they see.
.
He was once an economist, with Keynesian economic models variations. That was then. Then he embraced the Keynesian economic model, went full on democrat, and made money as a Democratic Party favorite and shill.
He isn’t an economist now, he has no predictive value. Better to watch what the Warren Buffetts are doing and not listen to the shills.
Krugman has been so very wrong about so many things it is amazing to me that he has any credibility left.
GM recently announced cutting 1400 union jobs.
“Give your money to me.”
Paul can look around in his circle and see things are fine. Inflation is no issue for the wealthy, their asset values just soar higher.
Paul has no concept of the working class.....who is getting crushed on every front. Their wages are rising, yet they are falling behind and they know it.
Of course the really poor, we will just keep handing them stuff, keeping them comfortable......like economic hospice.
Maybe he can explain how you buy a new $70,000 car and make $1k a month payments...of a $45,000 a year salary, while working on a $300,000 mortgage situation...paying $1,750 a month for the house, then covering home/car insurance at a $2,400 a year.
This is not a conservative perspective. Nor is it biblical.
It is a Leftist model, of the Krugman sort. One reads:
"A perpetual bond is a bond with no maturity date that theoretically pays interest forever." So you think US citizens should be in perpetual debt and only "service" the debt? Others call that involuntary servitude. Perpetual bond - WikipediaAs to "ample abilities" to "service" debt, most Americans haven't ample abilities of which you write.An Overview of Perpetual Bonds - Investopedia
US median per capita $65KThe Krugmans of this world and their fans are wholly uninterested in the fiscal healthy of most Americans, but happy to see them in "service" to debt. This is feudal, in a way. Binding a people to the "land" which is "debt." In perpetuity. Indentured servitude through corrupt, Leftist politics.
Less than $50k -- 60.96% of population.
Circa $50k-$100k -- 24.61% of population.
More than $100k -- 14.43% of population.Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_income_in_the_United_States
I seriously doubt that Krugman has ever been inside a grocery store.
Lefturd loons are called loons because they are the ones who are emotionalists, subjectivists, relativists, whim-worshipers, evaders of reality, and are incompatible with life proper to a rational being. They are just projecting when they accuse conservatives of that.
1. his wife wrote it
2. his Nobel was for bashing George W. Bush
inflation
increased national debt
tax increases
interest rate increases
increased regulations
negative impact on small businesses compared to large businesses
short term rather than long term
Krugman probably steps over sleeping homeless people when he walks towards the building with his office—and it is so “normal” he does not even notice them.
Krugman is a leading advocate of expansionary monetary policy to boost inflation and aggressive fiscal policy to boost aggregate demand. In 2016, he said: “Everything about recent experience suggests that the world desperately needs fiscal expansion to boost demand and—that our sole reliance on central banks isn’t working.”
For example, on his blog in 2015, Krugman pointed to a positive correlation between government expenditure and economic growth from 2010 to 2013.
