...Krugman is a Nobel Prize winner, a well-paid columnist, and a bestselling author. I assume he’s a millionaire. I don’t hold that against him, but from reading all of these repeated and reflexive defenses of Obamacare, it seems safe to say he doesn’t share much in common nowadays with regular, everyday people who are not poor yet must always worry about money....

In 1999 Krugman was paid $50,000 by Enron as a consultant on its “advisory board,” and that same year he wrote a glowing article about Enron for Fortune magazine. Enron collapsed in 2001.

If Economics is the physics of money, then Krugman is an economic alchemist.

"the facts on the ground [of Ocare] are getting better by the day" (Krugman)

No, it's not the Beatles "getting better every day"; it's Charlie Manson.

Krugman was also one of those who immediately blamed conservatives for the Gabby Giffords shooting.

Lately he's been running around advocating 5-6% inflation.

Krugman also won Best In Show at the 2008 Washington Weasel Show.

Krugman is part of the cabal to bring communism to America. Lie, steal,cheat..whatever it takes.

Krugman admits he’s a communist
Paul Krugman, a professor at Princeton University, was on Bloomberg this weekend and he said he was a “card-carrying communist.” He also said that he believes in redistribution of wealth in America. So he wants to take some of your money and give it to those less fortunate. Against your will, of course.

That’s interesting! Somewhat like Dick Gephardt lobbying for businesses he fought against now that he’s out of congress.
