Paul Krugman is an incompetent misguided Keynsian inflationist idiot that will ruin us all.

I guess he can't be much worse than Geithner though.

Paul Krugman is a Bailout pushing whore just like the rest of them, also he's a big supporter of the Fraudulent Federal Reserve destroying the dollar via inflation (He thinks inflation is GOOD!)

You haven't read that much, have you? Did you just read some conservative web blog then post what you read here? Krugman has been very critical of the whole way the bailouts have been conucted, both with Bush and Obama. Very critical indeed. Get a clue, and read a little more.

conservative? No. Braindead? Yes.
Google this: To fight this recession the Fed needs more than a snapback; it needs soaring household spending to offset moribund business investment. And to do that, as Paul McCulley of Pimco put it, Alan Greenspan needs to create a housing bubble to replace the Nasdaq bubble.

You shall find his 2002 column of the NY times.

Owned.

fatjohn - Welcome back one month later from your stupor.

Owned? If you own being stupid I agree. That might be too harsh, how about poorly informed? Nah stupid works.

I know all about his article, he was criticizing policy not advocating it which is also pretty obvious in the article and something he sadly had to explain to the slow witted right-wingers since then.

Your ideology has failed you. The keepers of it lie to you. Start reading and thinking for yourself. Good luck with that!

yeah, wow

so he was criticizing policy. lol
Yes he was, and his conclusion was not that the policy wasn't good. It was just that he didn't believe it would work, which it did. So he was wrong, TWICE.
I'm just sorry, but I can't believe a guy who advocates the broken window fallacy. Or believes it might be good from time to time to dig a hole, put some money in it, bury it and pay some one to get it back.
Ow, yeah. I need to say something degrading now, don't I?
Well, you are a giant douche.

fatjohn - LOL, I may be.

That is some creative interpretation of his article. Not in the realm of reality but then you do ascribe to Libertarian ideology so no surprise there.

Sorry your just flat out wrong or are deliberately trying to fabricate an entirely different meaning from his article. Do those who provide you with what to think tell you that or did you just do the creative fiction on your own? Either way your simply incorrect and basically being dishonest.

One of the things he has done in the last years has been to communicate economic theory and concepts to a wider audience outside of academia, an invaluable service.
