Paul Krugman, you ... ( 10 months ago by baronmorris)
Paul Krugman, you are quickly becoming one of my heroes. Thank you for raising your voice with such empathy and cogency.

hahahaha! ass 'whole'! YOU ARE AN IDIOT jeanthree! you should learn to keep your toothless undereducated mouth shut. It is ignorant undereducated 'family values' republicans like yourself that make this country look like a bunch of 'ass wholes'. And before you get your small mind in an uproar, I am a republican (not a neo-con nut job, there is a HUGE difference). Enlighten yourself on just the most root basics before you speak... or just be quiet.

Free trade caused the fall of the middle class and lower middle class and Krugman was a free trader. As a union steelworker no one in my union will ever vote democrat even after katrina and the clusterfuck in Iraq.

well democrats are dumb. nice to know someone agrees.
Array ( 10 months ago by tyranny23)
jeanthree,
It is spelled "asshole".
whole. the whole assemblage of parts or elements belonging to a thing; the entire quantity, account, extent, or number: He accepted some of the parts but rejected the whole.
hole. an opening through something; gap; aperture: a hole in the roof; a hole in my sock.
For your information, I am a republican not a democrat (I know you say "liberal", again showing your ignorance).
Now go brush your tooth.
Whenever the issue ... ( 10 months ago by DoroteoAranjuez)
Whenever the issue of income inequality pops, Greenspan alludes to the increase in wage differences between skilled and unskilled workers. Hogwash. Krugman is right. The inequality that is hurting the country is between the 0.01 per cent of Americans and the rest. Obscene! Despite Faux News, inequality is not due to merit or skill, but (at best) to luck and (at worst) to corruption, abuse of stockholders, investors, workers, customers, taxpayers, people abroad, the public in general.
stupid, too. ;-) ... ( 10 months ago by baronmorris)
stupid, too. ;-) and, not, but thanks for your concern. Obviously you are similarly concerned for things like equal rights, human rights, the environment, civil liberties, world peace, animal rights, indiginous people's property and resource rights, and the list goes on and on. You must be a truly enlightened person. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us. ;-)
Peace! - baron

Krugman supported the policies that caused the income inequities
I don't know who ... ( 9 months ago by ayri0)
I don't know who this "Paul" guy is, but he seems to raise important issues in a reasonable manner. I've only had a couple of econ classes, but still I do understand what he's talking about, and I think he's worth listening to. The point about the discrepancy between individual risk and aggregate social risk ... don't you feel it in your financial wellbeing, and don't you think this individual anxiety had an economic effect ... in addition to the degradation of our standard of living?
I realize that ... ( 8 months ago by skearny1)
I realize that Krugman is one of the leaders in academia on the study of market failures, but I still must disagree with his premise that decreasing employment mobility might increase society's welfare. I think there's clear evidence to the contrary.
His statment that ... ( 8 months ago by CenterLeftLiberal)
His statment that educational attainment has played only a minor role regarding increased inequality echos my own research findings. The earnings even of those with a Master's and Doctorate have fallen far behind the top 1%. I think the most recent figures show a 176% increase in mean $ for top 1% vs. 69% for the top 20% overall.
Exactely - you got ... ( 8 months ago by CenterLeftLiberal)
Exactely - you got it. It really is only the top 1%, whose share of aggregate income has increased from 7.5% to 14%! As you said, blaming educational attainment is "Hogwash."

This is Adam Smith ... ( 6 months ago by Tubeview75)
This is Adam Smith vs. John Nash. One theory is a "survival of the fittest" economy. The other is "trying to do well for yourself,but at the same time realizing the well being of others around you affects your well being as well".
I feel Nash was right. That we all play a part in this economy, and we all deserve a piece of it's rewards. Not the top 1% percent controlling 80% of the world's wealth.

Yes, and ad hominems are a very effective way to argue. Bill O'Reilly is a Buckley-wannabe. The only difference is, Buckley was actually intelligent, and Buckley respected his guests.
I second that. ... ( 3 months ago by andersoncouncil65)
I second that. There needs to be more participation involved in the economy for it to be truly democratic. Wealth is a good determinant for who deserves the most chi-pets but not for who deserves the highest quality healthcare.
In regards to ... ( 2 months ago by Evangelander)
In regards to Americans losing their homes and the banking interests of corporatism I would like to say this:
It would be better to help the individual to work through a situation (becoming unemployed, for instance) and help them to keep their home. That way the banks would not suffer loses from people going into deault.
But, we have this problem of greed that often overrules. The banker, who actually owns the property, anyway, makes more money if they allow it to default. Greed often wins
Countries with ... ( 3 weeks ago by skearny1)
Countries with rigid labor markets do not adjust as robustly or quickly to the continuously evolving labor markets of an open, globalized economy. Enterprises are hesitant to increase output due to fear of being left with debilitating labor costs in the event of an economic slowdown, and so they don't hire because they can't fire if needed. Workers are more prone to cling to their current jobs, rather than exploring elsewhere, leading to a stagnant environment. High mobility=Low unemployment!
