pitt83 - 2012-11-19 8:07 AM Interesting op-Ed piece. http://www.nytimes.com/2012/11/19/opinion/krugman-the-twinkie-manif... eech...

So what do you find interesting about it?  It sounds like every other one of his many  "tax the evil rich" op-eds. (And honestly he doesn't even really address the Hostess issue.  He just uses Twinkies to grab a headline.  The guy is really a hack.)

As usual, Nobel prize winning economist Krugman is right on.  I wish Obama had made him head of his economic council or maybe even given him a cabinet position back in 2008.

Krugman is an idiot. Take a read through this if you'd like.

All in know, is that every time I see him on a news analysis talk show he says something and then looks around the room with this "are they actually buying the words that just came out of my mouth?" look on his face.....

And the Eurozone this year... They really like things that are bound to end-up bad...

What are the odds on peace lasting in the Eurozone throughout this century?

The Euro won't last til 2020 IMO. Technically you could already say the peace isn't lasting with the increasingly more violent riots in Greece/Spain.
