When you’re rich and pay no taxes, it really doesn’t matter. If you’re the working poor and middle class and you pay one quarter or more of your salary to the government... It matters a lot

Obviously Krugman is wealthy enough that none of this stuff matters...to him.

Some flaming lib at a party this past weekend told me, that we’ll have a recession because people like me keep talking about it and make everybody scared to spend money.
I told that dude to look at gas prices and make a correct determination about what impact inflation and energy prices have on people.

”The determination of some people to say ‘We’re in a recession!’ is above and beyond anything I’ve ever seen," Krugman continued....I guess he doesn’t remember the lead-up to the 2008 election.

Economy is economy. Stagflation, recession, depression, inflation. Just words describing meager situation of the economy.
And Economy is in bad shape for sure.
But Recession is a bad word!
It hurts the Democrats in elections.

I’ve seen (and shared) videos and pics of both Bill Clinton AND Pelosi saying “a recession is two quarters in a row of negative economic growth or GDP” recently.
That’s the definition of a recession that’s been used for over fifty years now.
We’re IN A RECESSION, period, end of sentence. Dems just want to try to change the definition and deny it as it’s gonna crush them even worse in the midterms.

What does Paul Krugman matter?
Old joke:
Q: What's the difference between Dick Morris and Paul Krugman?
A: Dick Morris is right once in a blue moon.
