This guy seemed interesting until he started throwing out the old conservative lies about the fiscal stimulus during the Great Depression not working. Unemployment DID come down a lot due to fiscal stimulus, but rose in 1937 as soon as the government decided it was time to balance the budget. Why are liberals not named Krugman so reluctant to point this out?
And when you throw out that you believe in the debunked theories of the Austrian school, well then I am keeping my money far away from you.

Please keep it up. We need you interventionist types to blow all your assets in a vain bet on the success of “fiscal stimulus” and “Keynesian fine-tuning” and whatever other nonsense is supposed to float the economy on a happy cloud of successful steering by modern philosopher-kings.
Once you’re done with that, we’ll pick up the pieces.
Finally, if I read another Keynesian post of the 1937 post hoc ergo propter hoc grade school case for stimulus I’m going to have to claw my own eyeballs out.
