Bogus my butt, I lived about 200 yards from a welfare center on Broadway in NYC. Cadillacs were no illusion, and welfare did great harm to the families on it. Krugman needs a therapist.

“More than 40 years have passed since the Voting Rights Act, which Reagan described in 1980 as humiliating to the South. “
I’m wondering if Reagan really said that. Anyone know?

What Krugman doesn't bother to mention is that millions of northern white men have moved south and became southern white men. They did not move there because they heard the south offered lots of wonderful government programs. They moved there because there was better economic opportunities in the south than in the north or midwest. I geuss the mere act of moving to the south caused these open minded northern men to because racist southern men.
Besides there nothing wrong with being cooncerned about crime where people have reaped the pro-criminal court rulings of the 60's and 70's sowed.

"...the bogus story of the Cadillac-driving welfare queen..."This goofball obviously never visited the Detroit area, or he'd never have called that story "bogus."
"Typical," maybe, but not "bogus."

Despite what might have happened back in 1980, modern Democrats feed racial polarization and feed off racial polarization.
The Republican philosophy on racial minorities is to assimilate them into mainstream society. The Democrat philosophy is to keep them barefoot, pregnant and registered to vote.

Krugman soils himself yet again, and he dares take the name of Ronald Reagan in vain. The odious troll knows how to use accusations of racism to poison, but pertinent analysis of voting trends is beyond his fevered mind. Revolting.

Dear Mr. Krugman,
did you know that every human is born genetically black? Some of us happen to carry recessive mutations for creating less melanin in the dermis, hence light colored skin.
What you really need to address is cultural attitudes, you know, like stealing is OK and rape is an every day fact of life. That’s where all the real differences lie.

As the political scientist Larry Bartels points out, in the 1952 presidential election 40 percent of non-Southern white men voted Democratic; in 2004, that figure was virtually unchanged, at 39 percent.
so 60% non-southern white men DIDN'T vote democratic ?
What's your point ?
I believe Krugman read Bartels report wrong.

Thus, Reagan repeatedly told the bogus story of the Cadillac-driving welfare queen a gross exaggeration of a minor case of welfare fraud. He never mentioned the womans race, but he didnt have to...He didn't have to? Why? So a Keynesian Socialist like Krugman could just fill in the blanks to suit his own agenda 20 years later?
Unlike left wing Dims, right wing conservatives and libertarians are color blind. Nobody gives a crap if a person is orange, green or purple with pink poke a dots.

Krugman does not understand southern white people. I can assure him it is the whitey welfare queens that get people riled up also. It is not race it is welfare abuse. I see it everday. I think those is the South notice it more can we KNOW our neightbors more than those in the cities. He is a NY liberal and has NO ideas what the country between the two oceans think. And I also got news for him. The Democratic party changed on God, Guns and Gays. And it is not just white men who know this.

Krugman needs a therapist.No, Krugman is so astute that the NY Times should make his stuff available only on a pay site.
