 Welcome to the Knuckleheads of Liberty. Well, speaking of, I was talking about unscientific scientists, we have surprisingly, I guess, economically educated economists as well. And that brings us to sort of Krugman in his, I guess I want to call it Krugmanomics because it doesn't really feel like economics. It just feels like whatever the shepherd says, that's what his followers are supposed to take. But Krugman has come out recently and says, well, it doesn't really matter whether or not you call it a recession or not. Well, that's kind of funny because he wasn't really voicing that opinion earlier. He just seems to be voicing that now that his team seems to need an assist. So it's kind of a cowardly way to come out too to say, well, it doesn't really matter instead of just clearly backing his side. He wants to give himself a little bit of a fig leaf, I guess, if it ever blows back on it. But it's just ridiculous. And he's calling this negativity bias is what this is all, well, the bottom line is if the definition was two quarters of negative growth, if that was the standard definition before that it is or it isn't, we can either measure that. And it's one thing, it's an honest thing to say, hey, look, it's true that this says it's a recession, but maybe there's some positive indicators we can feel good about. Okay, you can make that argument, but the numbers don't matter that don't help me. So we're just not going to talk about that right now. And let me just give you a little bit of Krugman's background for those who may not be well-versed in Krugmanomics. So Krugmanomics, Krugman, before Biden came into office, he was talking about the coming Biden boom. And that seems to be one of the many predictions that he's made that seemed to be rah-rah for the left. It never seemed to quite come true. And I also wanted to bring back his famous quote, and he tries to say, well, this was just sort of a joke, but just given the fact that he's so one-sided, I think we can be a little one-sided and not giving him any charity on this one either. But he said the growth of the internet will, so this is before, you know, the internet was a big thing, right? He said the growth of the internet will slow drastically as the flawed Metcalfe's law, which states that the number of potential connections in a network is proportional to the square of the number of participants becomes apparent. Most people have nothing to say to each other. Oh my God, has he not seen social media? But he says by 2005 or so, it will become clear that the internet's impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine. So that was Paul Krugman, who posts 2005, I guess, back in the, maybe that was back in the 90s. I'm not sure the exact date of that. But it's just, you know, one thing after another. And yet this guy is celebrated in the New York Times as the guru for economics. Anyway, do you guys want to take a swing at Krugman? I mean, how this guy won a Nobel Prize in economics is beyond me, but I guess that says something about the politics of the committee who make the selection. I mean, Paul Krugman have been wrong on almost everything that he have ever predicted, almost everything. Go back and look at his record. This is horrible. Okay, I'm sure he had a few cases where he was right about something or the other. But you go back and look at most of the things that he have ever predicted in big public pronouncements. He'd be even wrong. The man is a jack. Oh, God, I can't say that. I'm sorry. Okay. The man is a J.A. Let's put it that way and could never get anything right. And he keeps coming at us with these nonsensical things. Now, just to say Biden from the political damage of having presided over recession. Now he's trying to tell us, oh, you know, we're not in a recession and really does not matter. The economy is what it is. Yeah, we know that. We know that. We know the economy is what it is. But we are in a recession by the definition we all knew. The gross domestic product is the largest measure. It is the broadest measure of economic activity. And if we see in a trinket, something is wrong. We know something is going wrong in the economy. It does not mean that everything is wrong, but something in general is wrong and something needs to be fixed and corrected. But group man have to defend his political friends. So you have to come up with this nonsense. This so-called esteemed economists, you have to come up with this nonsense. This man should retire and shut his mouth and retire to some quiet island somewhere and never speak again. And he will help the United States and the world greatly by doing that. Well, I'll say it. Paul Krugman is an economic donkey. There, I said it. Yeah, and apparently, although people don't have anything to say to each other, well, he's got way too much to say. Yes, definitely. Way too much to say and he ought to stop saying it. But life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness always and forever.
