Poor Paul Krugman. He’s been reduced to using zombie metaphors to illustrate his disdain for certain “centrist” Democratic presidential candidates. Krugman wrote Feb. 17 that “sometimes zombie ideas also manage to eat centrists’ brains,” in an op-ed headlined “Have Zombies Eaten Bloomberg’s and Buttigieg’s Brains?” This appears to be an obvious play on his recently released book “Arguing with Zombies: Economics, Politics, and the Fight for a Better Future.” To be clear, Krugman assured his readers that the “most important zombie ideas are on the right, kept undead by big money from billionaires who have a financial interest in getting people to believe things that aren’t true.” [Emphasis added.]

Krugman has predicted 25 of the last 5 recessions.
Krugman is a loon, why does anyone pay any attention to him?
He got a Nobel prize for saying “More and more big government is good” from a bunch of big government types.
He writes for the Slimes.
He’s at an Ivy League school.
As if we needed more proof about this clown.
I've been lost now for days uncounted
And it's months since I've seen home
Can you hear me? Can you hear me?
Or am I all alone?
If you return me to my home port
I will kiss you Mother Earth
Take me back now, take me back now
To the port of my birth
Am I in my cabin dreaming?
Or are you really scheming
To take my ship away from me?
You'd better think about it
I just can't live without it
So please don't take my ship from me
I can feel the hand of a stranger
And it's tightening around my throat
Heaven help me, Heaven help me
Take this stranger from my boat
I'm your captain, I'm your captain
Though I'm feeling mighty sick
Everybody listen to me
And return me my ship
Krugman is certifiably nuts.
The main difference between Krugman and former leftist economist John Kenneth Galbraith isn't that Krugman is still alive, it is that Galbraith would get something right every once in awhile.
"It really does now look like President Donald J. Trump, and markets are plunging. When might we expect them to recover?
Frankly, I find it hard to care much, even though this is my specialty. The disaster for America and the world has so many aspects that the economic ramifications are way down my list of things to fear.
Still, I guess people want an answer: If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never."
You're words, CHUMP!
11/9/2016 By Paul Krugman: Still, I guess people want an answer: If the question is when markets will recover, a first-pass answer is never.
Under any circumstances, putting an irresponsible, ignorant man who takes his advice from all the wrong people in charge of the nation with the world’s most important economy would be very bad news. What makes it especially bad right now, however, is the fundamentally fragile state much of the world is still in, eight years after the great financial crisis.
How would Krugman know what a centrist thinks? He been a fringe Leftist wack job his whole life
This creep with his shifty eyes, this Godless, paranoid, freak, always wrong, .....he embodies to me the arrogant liberal college professor indoctrinating his students with child porn on his computer. He’s one creepy dude.
