After Shoving Foot Down Throat, Krugman Now Gives His Few Remaining Readers Comment Etiquette Tips
One of the first, and arguably most stupid responses following Saturday's tragic shooting news, came from none other than self-appointed economic seer Paul Krugman (whose "government must spend more" ubiquitous retort to everything would have long-since bankrupted the world ten times over and left it with quadrillions of unrepayable debt), who in a post so disjointed and rambling, very unprofessionally decided against waiting for the dust to clear and facts to emerge, and instead proceeded to blame the republicans and the tea party for the tragic events that transpired: "We don’t have proof yet that this was political, but the odds are that it was." Today he proceeds to infuriate his few remaining readers with a blog post which one can say is even more intellectually challenged than its predecessor.
1. Obscenity will get your comment deleted; I suspect that a fair number of commenters don’t even realize they’re doing it, because that’s the way many of us #$%^! talk these days. But think about it, and don’t waste your time or mine.
2. Stay on the topic of the post.
3. New rule, if you haven’t seen it: Nazi/Hitler references are out unless clearly relevant.
4. Get your insults right. There is, I believe, a fair bit of evidence against the hypothesis that I’m stupid. What you mean to say is that I’m evil.
We are fairly certain that Paul is absolutely wrong about point 4, but will will give him the And/And benefit of the doubt.
It is one thing for Krugman to be wrong about everything. He merely
provides an easy target for those who actually understand that his
policy solutions have crossed the imbecile twilight zone. However, when he engages in pointless hate-filled and fact-free rhetoric, it may be time for the NYT, in its endless pursuit of objective, impartial content of course, to consider severing ties with the man who is now a mockery to all but himself.

Speaking of Little Men -
Tim Geithner, Secretary of the Treasury, will speak at the Johns Hopkins University Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) on Wednesday, January 12 at 8:30 a.m.
Ahead of President Hu’s State visit to Washington, Geithner, a 1985 SAIS graduate, will speak about “The Path Ahead for the U.S.-China Economic Relationship.”
The lecture is open to the members of the SAIS community and invited guests only. However, the event is open to the media for coverage.
Anyone here invited?

I once made the mistake of suggesting to Steve Hanke that Krugman got part of the story correct. OMG-Did that trigger a shit storm. An example of his view
http://www.thedailybell.com/1104/Steve-Hanke-Prof-Krugman-Is-Wrong-Again...
this lecture could be summed up in two words: "learn mandarin."
The Great Douchebag strikes again!
What an arrogant cunt this guy is.
For all practical purposes Gabrielle Giffords is out of the America big politics. Chances that she ever will be a "normal person" are very remote taking into account her injuries.
The Rep. Gabrielle Giffords shooting is a huge blow to America Ruling Elite & Oligarchy.
She was/is:
Consequently, the Ruling Elite & Oligarchy have made huge investments into the Gabrielle Giffords political career. And now, it is all gone.
Note that Obama is also a candidate/puppet of the Ruling Elite & Oligarchy. But he is not an insider. Consequently, at some moment, his actions can be very unpredictable. Hitler was allowed to get the power under an assumption that he could be "easily controlled". It did not work. Soviet Jewish Bolsheviks have made a bet on J. Stalin, and he came very close to implement a Holocaust-II.
Rep. Gabrielle Giffords was a very good and a safe bet of the Ruling Elite & Oligarchy. She was their insider. Now, for all practical purposes, she is gone.
Not sure about that. One of my residences is two miles from the Safeway where the shooting occurred.
Both the Tucson Citizen and Arizona Republic newspapers are quoting the surgeons who predict she will make a full recovery since the bullet passed through a non-critical part of her brain.

Do Democrats have any parts of their brains that ARE critical? Just askin'...
Yeah, it's all the Democrats fault cuz they're sooo stooopid...
Wake the fuck up, if you identify as D or R you're just another one of their useful idiots.
is he a democrat by any chance? :LMAO:
"Get your insults right. There is, I believe, a fair bit of evidence against the hypothesis that I’m stupid. What you mean to say is that I’m evil."
I often agree with Krugman, but he seems a bit arrogant on this one.
I don't think the fish are biting today, Hamy.
It's still early and the west coast is just rolling out of bed. Give it time. :>)
Au contraire mon frère; the space monkeys are hungry, but for different fare. Hamy & TGP (below) are using last year's bait. The current hot tip for serious anglers (like ZH) is to offer up tasty chum like one Paul Krugman.
No contest.
Awesome pic.
Economists are exactly like the Priest class of the Middle Ages. They speak their own language, no one is allowed to see the Holy Scriptures, only the Priests have the answers, they are above criticism... I am sure we can find more!

More like forensics laced with disinformation at best.
They are scientists in the same way that Michael Vick is an animal lover...
Same goes for "Climate" scientists. Professions akin to what the Mayans used to control their populations. Now it's getting hot, someone bring me a virgin to throw into the well!
Interestingly, most primitive religions started out as a way to explain weather. The sacrifices came when they tried to sell the proles on the idea it could be controlled.
All the great scams get recycled.
I couldn't agree more. I love science (the hard sciences, anyway), and I think it is a travesty what they've done in the name of it. Of course, the aware observer can see through the sham with ease. What sucks is that you have to put up with the true believers.

I wonder if our tax dollars are going towards some government program to have him post on boards.
Diminishing returns.. how long can you debate a fool before you start looking like the same fool.
Besides, his shtick is as played out as fucking stupid Nazi economists
He is losing it, next he will be living under an overpass.
I'm gonna say over an underpass but hell, we're thinking right along the same lines.
Speaking of hell...doesn't this photo of Krugman seem to have a kind of satanic overtone?
http://www.zimbio.com/photos/Paul+Krugman/Nobel+Prize+Award+Ceremony+200...
That photo reminds me of the Haunted Mansion at Disney World where the photos in the first room extend down to show the subject in imminent danger. Except this picture would pan to the right and we'd see millions of unemployed and hungry middle class Americans about to savage the good doctor.
yes
At least I see "no bell" in the photo, but I do see a ding-dong.
Krugman, Bernanke, Paulson, Stieglitz, Greenspan... All eventually proven to be running on hot air...
Paul's Fame Clock, just clicked on 00:14:59.99. (HH:MM:SS:TH)
OK, rules disgested....Paul Krugman I hope (insert prominent historical tyrant of your choice here) cuts off your weasely &%$#ing beard when you arrive in hell and makes you eat it for all eternity!
That acceptable Krugman you little spineless jellyfish hack?
I've just SOLD all my GOLD...
It is a huge bubble ready to pop...
I've followed Krugman's advice. Dr. Paul Krugman Ph.D. (Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences) cannot be wrong.
Do you people seriously believe Krugman and Bernanke can be wrong? If they were, they would not have earned their current position. It takes a lot of intelligence and honesty to become the FED's chairman or to blog at the New York Times.
Great job! Please use it all to buy some iPads immediately.
quick, there no to to waste with pumping up the middle man's dividends, go straight into AAPL
"Home sales are coming down from the mountain peak, but they will level out at a high plateau -- a plateau that is higher than previous peaks in the housing cycle.”

Assets bought with debt-->bubble.
Assets bought with cash-->first to be impacted by monetary inflation.
Which is more likely? Gold, silver, wheat, corn, rice, barley, and many others are all in a bubble, or monetary inflation is affecting real asset prices?
The paper ponzi ....? The property bubble in China has not been driven by debt how did it happen ....?
..... "But almost 25% of purchases in China are made with 100% cash because the Chinese have saved and invested. The minimum down payment allowed in China is 20%. The average purchase is being made with 50% cash down, meaning that far from what you may have read, the purchases driving the real estate market in China are being made not with outlandish credit, but with more cash than comparable purchases in the U.S. Beijing's real estate market is driven by less levered Chinese cash buyers with rapidly rising incomes. What bank wouldn't want to lend to them? " ...........
An economic bubble (sometimes referred to as a speculative bubble, a market bubble, a price bubble, a financial bubble, a speculative mania or a balloon) is “trade in high volumes at prices that are considerably at variance with intrinsic values”.[1][2] It could also be described as a trade in products or assets with inflated values.
While some economists deny that bubbles occur,[3] the cause of bubbles remains a challenge to those who are convinced that asset prices often deviate strongly from intrinsic values.
While many explanations have been suggested, it has been recently shown that bubbles appear even without uncertainty,[4] speculation,[5] or bounded rationality.[6] It has also been suggested that bubbles might ultimately be caused by processes of price coordination[7] or emerging social norms.[6]
Because it is often difficult to observe intrinsic values in real-life markets, bubbles are often conclusively identified only in retrospect, when a sudden drop in prices appears. Such a drop is known as a crash or a bubble burst. Both the boom and the bust phases of the bubble are examples of a positive feedback mechanism, in contrast to the negative feedback mechanism that determines the equilibrium price under normal market circumstances. Prices in an economic bubble can fluctuate erratically, and become impossible to predict from supply and demand alone.
That's what I thought to, until I learned about unofficial lending that that was going on in China. These "loan sharks" allowed people to get into property without paying ANYTHING down.
Try again.
Try again ... ? What about the derivative paper ponzi in GLD/SLV.
So the underground " loan sharks " created the bubble... Can you post a link ????
There are some big, big sharks swimming in China.

Edit: and as for GLD/SLV, that isn't really gold they are buying. They will only affect the price in the short term.
Did Dutch commoners buy tulps on margin?
Not sure but gold is riding on a wave of paper ....
Yes, they did (http://www.crash2.com/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=1). Also, tulips and houses can be produced very quickly, at exponential rates. Gold can not.
Right, sharks and piranhas wait their turn during feeding frenzies too!
gold is in a bubble
Very relevant quote from Robin Griffiths on CNBC interview - “I think not owning gold is a form of insanity. It may even show unhealthy masochistic tendencies which might need medical attention.”
Ponzi - it's time to go and see the good doctor (and I dont mean any Keynsian PhD motherfucker)

I knew Krugman was an ignorant fool when I was in high school 20 years ago. Nothing he has said in the intervening years has caused me to change my opinion.
Yet the media build him and FED goons into 'saviors', with insight way above us mere mortals. Well, I know why but I can't detail it here. Of course, when the house of cards collapses they all claim it couldn't been seen coming... (Greenpan's on the financial crisis).
NYT very upsetting lately. Seem to be printing the hype instead of the truth. Too bad. Love the paper for the most part.
Wait- - you actually buy that shit? Talk about your Stockholm Syndrome. On steroids.
Go towards the light!

Gee, Krugman better be careful or some Jewish wacko like Loughner just might come gunnin' for him next.
Krugman and Potok, 2 peas in a pod. But only 2 of many.
Jews killing Jews?!? What next? If one Jew kills another, are they both still "chosen"?
Who's Potok? Chaim?
Hack journalists take jabs at Beck, Limbaugh, Palin, et al to win approval from their peers, reassure their base and stir up the opposition. It's the easiest way to pump up the hit counts. Just a game, really, and beats working for a living.
Yea well I believe its all backfiring spectacularly on them. This immediate attack by the govt/media complex to in effect trash the 1st and 2nd ammendment due to this HIGHLY suspicious case of a single shooting is not being bought by anyone...not even the far left in the country who see it for what it really is.
>> Hack journalists take jabs at Beck, Limbaugh, Palin, et al to win approval from their peers, reassure their base and stir up the opposition.
Are you implying Beck, Limbaugh, Palin, et al, are above doing the same thing?
He has become a caricature of himself, and not in a good way. Truly pathetic.
Krugman you are a grade A twat.
If one could trade bullshit and idiocy you would be top of the list for any hedge fund

actually what a small dick SEEMS he's got

I should sue you for wasting my time Krugman, you putz
One of the politician sock puppets this morning said hes working on a bill to ban 'dangerous language used against politicians' such as 'throw the bums out' which would apparently be a criminal offense if such a bill were ever passed. I hope the country suddenly vomits this entire system out very quickly...I dont care if it means rebuild it all from scratch! Like Mr Smith in The Matrix....I can no longer tollerate the SMELL!!
It was not political at all. The letter he saved was dated years before Palin and the tea party.
He's a nut job and if he hadn't focused on her it would have been someone else. People who knew him said he wasn't political at all and didn't attend any political events except obviously that one years ago when he didn't like the answer the congress woman gave him. I'm so disgusted by the left. Their behavior is sickening.
Shushup Im actually happy theyre doing this now...going FULL RETARD...hey GO for the attacks on 1st and 2nd ammendment you've WAY underestimated the public and overestimated yourselves! No ones buying this crap in fact its really just a huge self-exposing of these little closet nazis all over our govt and media!
+ 1984
free shit is great, quit yer bitchin fucker!
The 2 POMO dudes are unfazed by Krugman. Dow up 66
Sack up, NYT. Fire Krugman and give Noam Chomsky the column he deserves.
Krugman's early comments reminded me of Obama's comments about the arrest of his friend, Gates, and Bloomberg's comments about the Times Square bomber. Thank goodness that these super-genuises (just ask them!), along with Krugman, no longer have the MSM to hide behind. I guess that we should also throw in the Pima County sheriff. What is it about these loons? I know that Republicans make stupid comments, but at least, when they do, they don't trot out "I'm a super-genius"!?!
If you think Krugman is alienating his readers, you haven't read the comments section from his articles. The Left takes it as gospel that those on the right are violent, stupid and racist. Krugman is just preaching to the choir at the NYT.
Really? If its all good then why is he crying so much about people calling him bad names and being stupid?
he must delete all the ones saying he's a #$%&ing idiot.
Paul's igNobel in Econ is as specious as BO's in Peace.
They are shining symbols of what is wrong with our world. And our world view.
Also goes to show how manipulated the system is. Give Nobel, twist world-view. Lecture tour follows. Virus spreads. Such a simple method. And people line up to listen to these people. Should have seen BO's Indian Jamboree. Made one want to puke.
But such is how it is.

Hmm...A fraud? Coming from the Pinochet-Lover Gonzalo Lira who hates in his guts monstruous lefties like Krugman and Allende. People that should be taken out by all means necessary right? I see the Fox News Manifesto goes around.
Where does the article say it was from Gonzalo Lira, and what makes you think he, or anyone around here, watches Fox News?
For someone with a 35 week old account, you sure are dumb.
Is it just me or does the sniveling, sweating, Krugman remind anyone else of a weasel, or maybe a ferret?
He's definitely a very weasely and creepy guy...Im sure he has some spectacular skeletons in his closet!

Try at around 3:36.
Uncanny resemblance! lol
Instead of banning dangerous speech, could we ban dangerous economic policy?
Here's Kruggs arguing for 8-10 trillion in QE:
http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232/?video=1614756246&play=1
Just send printing presses to every home and get it over with. Think of all the jobs making the printing presses will provide!
If the Fed just gave everyone a million bucks, then all would be well.
While it may be true that the majority of people are intelligent enough to disregard Krugman as an imbicile, the fact is the Federal Reserve led by Bernanke along with left wing big government socialist/marxists consider Krugman and his economic theories to be valid.
When you consider the policies carried out by Bernanke and the corrupt Federal Reserve, don't be so quick to write the obituary for this anti-American, anti-Capitalist, pro-socialist thug. The U.S. Federal Reserve obviously follows Krugman and his policies almost to the letter, and believe that tax and spend, redistribution, and Robin Hood economic policy is the best way to grow an economy.
Bottom line is Krugman is a thug, just like his anti-American socialist liberal ilk; as long as the Federal Reserve follows Krugman's playbook, he probably really doesn't care what other people think; afterall, since when did facts or the truth ever get in the way of a liberal and his or her agenda?
hey tyler...
what's most sad about Krugman is that his idiocy doesn't matter. Either the Times will retain him, as sadly a number of comments actually agreed with him. Or he'll leave the Times and work for HuffPo or Daily Beast as these emerging blogs are becoming more like MSM every week.
As others have said, Krugman is part of the problem.
Krugman is a high and exalted "Keeper of the Public Myth". Thus he must say whatever is needed to perpetuate, support, backstop and even seed the insanity that goes for "common knowledge" these days.
If he just so happens to speak truth it was a coincidence and certainly not part of the plan. A blind squirrel.......

Please do not post this fool's comments on your blog anymore. You only encourage him.
Everywhere you look its a flood of govt/media complex hacks going full retard rolling out the 'burn the constitution' red carpet....keep going idiots I even see lefties now shaking their heads saying its all insane and theyve gone too far. Full steam ahead political commie hacks ramp up FULL RETARD mode some more! Youre all at the end of your rope and the trap door is about to be sprung!
I hate Kkkrugman.
Platinum just broke resistence, next stop $1800. And after that, the world! Muahahaha! Hear that Kkkrugman? The world. Muahaha! Everybody has seen Kkkrugman's Nobel Lauriete speech where he describes his perfect world being run by "Firms", yes? He is a globalist, never trust a globalist.
Interesting comments and posts. "... the kind of political acrimony that we have witnessed feeds a dysfunctional culture where citizens and politicians turn their opponents into enemies and vilify those with whom they disagree. This creates the potential for dangerous actions and, at a minimum, makes political dialogue impossible."
junk away!!!!! lol (prove my point by vilifying me for respectfully disagreeing with you!)
Well played, Nobel committee.
Morons.
IgNobel
Tyler,
I agree with everything you write about Paul Krugman. The only reason that the man still exists is NBC. With the Comcast takeover approaching, I think Mr. Krugman needs a nickname.
I'll toss out one option...others are encouraged to play...as this guys is simply the definition of an imbecile.
For my first suggestion, I'm going with Puke Bucket.
Nutsack with a disturbing beard?
O/t question.
Why do we call the things we hate "nutsack" but we expect our women to love our own?
20 points for any answer. :>)
That's easy! It's called "cognitive dissonance!"
:)
Excellent play on words and meaning.
BTW, I'd rather be called nutsack. :>)
Ummm. No. Too Beatrix Potter.
i have never used the word nutsack. it is kinda derogatory, in nature. mostly coming from a woman's mouth i think. like it is ok for a black person to say the "N" word but not other colors. i think it is ok for males to say this "N" word but not so lady like for us girls.
aren't you overating him just a little?
Normal ----- IQ 85-115

Krugman is so angry and unstable while shooting from the lip he makes Jared Loughner look calm.
Agree. My guess is that the policies shooting from krugman's lips have destroyed (perhaps even killed?) far more people than loughner did.
He's both stupid and evil.
Sheesh, people....enough with the vitriol.....some of us Want to be ruled by a gold-plated corporate elite that the country can't afford!
Yet another reason why I no longer contribute to my 401K:
There used to be a "cash option" if you did not want to participate in "market folly".
Look at what replaced my cash option:
Wells Fargo Stable Return Portfolio Class C:
What it invests in
The stable value portfolio invests in financial instruments issued by highly rated companies. These include guaranteed investment contracts (GICs), security backed contracts (synthetic GICs), and cash equivalents. The contracts may include investments in, but not limited to, U.S. Treasury and agency bonds, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and bond funds. In general, bond prices rise when interest rates fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities. Unit price, yield and return will vary.
Who may want to invest
Someone seeking income without the price fluctuation of stock or bond funds.
LMAO?
Look to see if there is a fund with the descriptors "real asset" fund. In these funds look for PM holdings and miners as well as commodities.
~Misstrial
Krug makes me shrug. He's washed up. He is unwittingly scaling the scrap heap of history. At some point, the NYT is going to take a look at the dwindling circulation numbers, at the subscription cancellations that are no doubt pouring in from the reasonable and serious and decent among it's readers, at Krugman's salary, and make a move.
That's right, give that man a pay raise!
Carlos Slim likes the beard. It tickles.
Who do kids have to look to today for guidance? Corrupt politicians? Criminal bankers? Meth smoking, child diddling religious leaders? I have to believe there are people out there who are good, and who have a positive effect, but I don't know who they are. I thought that there were some messed up things about the world when I was a teen in the 90s, but today's kids are looking at a real shithole of a world, being run by criminals and bloody twits.
</off topic rant
Their parents?
It makes sense that he has to give direction to those who comment on his blog.
As an aside it's interesting that he views his critics as seeing him as evil as opposed to stupid. There is a serious incongruence between how he views himself and how he believes others view him. But more importantly the nature of that incongruence could suggest pathological tendencies i.e. an evil self-image

I think I'm going to be sick:
"If just 1% of all these underemployed men lose their bearings, that would be 220,000 of them. If 10% of those then try to buy a gun in any given year, and only 1% are turned down, then about 21,800 would succeed each year. That's an average of more than 400 per state. They're sitting at home, brooding, reading extremist websites and polishing their guns.
This will happen again. And again."

(apologies for threadjack, but this quote is priceless)
nobody cares about men or male unemployment.
Everything revolves around women and diversity...men should STFU and get back up in that bucket in the driving rain and get the goddamned power back on. NOW. Or just STFU and die bc nothing good was or is ever done by white men.
Ha! Indeed.
But this idiot's article suggests - using sloppy stats - that another lunatic is just lurking in his mother's basement, shining his gun in between prolonged periods surfing "extremists" websites (that the author conveniently leaves undefined). If the USA is killing pols with 9.4% or 16% official un/underemployment....then does that mean countries with 20+% unemployment are killing pols at twice the rate? I'm confused.
(I know there is almost universal hatred for Yahoo! finance and WSJ columnists here. I couldn't resist)
Trav...most good things were done by white men.
Krugman, like most on the left, wants to reserve the right to be an idiot but not be called out for it.
They insult everyone nonstop but have the thinnest fucking skins imaginable.
The ruling class actually believes this kind of stuff. They are very insulated from the real mood of the average citizen.
Gotta love Tyler's Headline Art .
;-)
Here's what he should have said: the Republican leadership does not have the brains to think ahead. I understand the Second Amendment; in fact, I know a few Democrats who realize that it was written 200 years ago, in a completely different social context.
What Republicans don't understand about carrying guns is that they bitch about police unions and pensions, but they show up with guns: simply put: duplication of effort. Republicans as a party don't think ahead. When a registered Republicans like Lougher shows up with a weapon and uses it, Republicans look like dumbbells.
Jared, is that you?
No, it's his buddy the Sheriff.
He was confirmed as a registered independent. I guess you
you don't get the facts at your choice of news outlet.
