re: #81 Obdicut

Immediately rejecting an appeal to authority after having appealed to your own authority is strange as hell.

Some thing you argue so weirdly I can’t even figure out.

Krugman wants an entire new regulatory agency, and your conclusion is that he didn’t think lack of regulation was a problem.

Let me say it as clearly as I can. He did not foresee this outcome. Therefore, his claim that something or other should have been in place is partisan, because he is included in the 99.9% of people who didn’t see this around the bend and prescribe solutions before the illness.

I don’t reject PhD’s lightly…only when their own words belie their headlines. This was mostly about a bubble. The executive compensation stuff is just meat for the lefty pits (to which, i should add hastily, you do NOT belong).
