[GaiusIuliusTaberna]

How can someone claim to be both a socialist and a liberal? A digression from the spirit of the video but one I can't resist. I hope you realize that liberal implies freedom of the private sector as much as the public. If you mean to describe yourself as a progressive rather than a liberal then I would point out that the two terms are not synonyms. However if you are a socialist then simply call yourself that,. It is a self contained political ideology.

@GaiusIuliusTaberna So are you suggesting that most liberals are pro-capitalism and anti-socialism? The two political philosophies are supportive of one another.

If that were the case, which it is not, then a "socialist" liberal would only identify freedom of socialism, which it does not. I'm for "balanced" capitalism and socialism, but since the U.S. is flagrantly leaning to the right (you know, all those capitalist conservatives) I advocate on stronger socialistic policies to offset it.

It's rather funny to hear Paul Krugman calling someone a liar when his pronouncements on Keynesianism are full of 'deliberate misinformation,' such as his claim that Hoover was a free market fundamentalist who slashed spending and deepened the depression. Krugman was once an honest scholar, whose writings on trade theory deserve a wide audience. But he let his politics define his work and that straitjacket has pushed him towards deceit and ill thought out prognostications based on fantasy.

@samson5791 - Once again, why should I ask you a question when clearly your bravado outranks your actual knowledge? Why would I think your well of knowledge would run deeper than the "is not", insults and self-flattery I'm sorry, but you say you are welcome to intelligent discourse, but nothing you've written is above that of a sixth grade history textbook. You then go right back to insults. You assume fallacies, and ignore reasoned rebuttal. So I can't help you.

[samson5791]

@mpc91 Once again, unless you have an actual well thought out question (rather than telling me what you think you know)...I cannot help you. Best wishes.

[mpc91]

@samson5791 - Again with the third grade arguments. For all your masters degrees, the best you can do is "you're stoopid". Is your economics class the same way? Do you just insult your students? Do they accept, "Cause I said so" as a backing up of an argument?

I'm guessing that you're as full of it in the classroom as you are here.

[samson5791]

@mpc91 You do not sound very bright or open to learning- so I am not interested in helping. Sounds like you are the type that likes to tell people what you think you know, while lacking sound fundamentals- those are the worse! Unless you have a degree in economics I consider your opinion not helpful.

[mpc91]

@samson5791 - So you teach economics, yet your best response so far was fitting of a third grade debater. "Uh unh"? Not really impressive.

"Are you asking what else besides infrastructure could the gov have spent the money on?" I answered - no. Anyone reading my previous post would have garnered that that was not my question. The question is, what might the private (voluntary) sector of the economy done with the money and resources used to build the road?
