He can't come out with a proposal for $10 or $20 billion of stuff because people will view that as a joke. There has to be a significant proposal ... If I had my druthers, if there were no limits politically, I'd say let's just have a really massive second stimulus plan to get the economy going, but sin...

Paul Krugman, Milton Friedman, Ben Bernanke, all travelled to Japan and bashed Japan left and right
China's bad behavior is posing a growing threat to the rest of the world economy
Obama is moving and also can be ironic. He writes about unions and a book by Paul Krugman who won the Nobel Prize in economics and how he learned from him about the number of millionaires which grew from about 30, in the days of Rockefellers, and just a few who decided the destiny of the United States.
President Obama came into office with a strong mandate and proclaimed the need to take bold action on the economy. His actual actions, however, were cautious rather than bold. They were enough to pull the economy back from the brink, but not enough to bring unemployment down.
Mr. Limbaugh desperately wants to buy into the NFL ... The Crips and Bloods comment will be recast to say that the NFL is beginning to look like Nobel laureates in economics Milton Friedman and Paul Krugman fighting over fiscal policy without considering the velocity of the money supply.

The gravity of the Nobel awards has not been augmented by some of their recent selections, including today's announcement, last year's award of the Economics prize [posthumously] to Paul Krugman, or the 2007 Peace Prize to Al Gore, whose global warming theories he will not defend in open debate. Maybe a...
Unless something changes drastically, we’re looking at many years of high unemployment.
Mark Miller contends that Paul Krugman, who is in face a Nobel-winning economist, knows his stuff.
High unemployment doesn’t just punish the economy today; it punishes the future, too.
As Paul Krugman keeps mentioning, recovery in Japan depended on rising net exports. Net exports is the key.
The value of China's currency, unlike, say, the value of the British pound, isn't determined by supply and demand. Instead, Chinese authorities enforced that target by buying or selling their currency in the foreign exchange market - a policy made possible by restrictions on the ability of private inves...
With the world economy still in a precarious state, beggar-thy-neighbor policies by major players can’t be tolerated ... Something must be done about China’s currency.
the view that the events of the Great Depression were the result of a complete lack of understanding and that if only our grandfathers knew what we now know, it could have been prevented
We basically replayed the first year of the Great Depression
Sometimes I think that one of these days I’ll end up in one of those cages on Guantanamo Bay
China needs a transformation to a growth strategy based upon domestic demand, particularly consumer demand
Um, I’m not a political scientist ... Also, I can’t quite remember when I last received NSF support, but it has to be at least 20 years ago — and it was, of course, for work on international trade, work that, you know, won me a Clark Medal and that other prize.
I was kind of hoping Obama might be FDR, but maybe not.
It was an enormous physical stimulus ... It was, you know - we're getting all worked up about Obama who would be spending at max about 2.5 percent of the gross domestic product. World War II, of course, was more than 40 percent of gross domestic product at its peak. So this is trivial stuff that we're d...
