[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK so after all that, we got one halfway reasonable response.  With it we got:

*Krugman is wrong because he is partisan

*ARRRRG I'm a pirate!

*One post somehow linking it to catholic priests having abortions (WTF but kudos for gratuitously working abortion into the thread)

*I don't know anything, here's a link that says what I feel (but which just rants on about libtards, etc.)

*And of course 8:56 ("I know the answer, but I won't share because you don't really want an answer")

What an embarrassing demonstration of conservative weak-mindedness. Kudos to the one among you who could actually string some thoughts together.  I'll be interested to see if she replies to any of the responses.[/quote]

assume this is OP; "bite" here closing up.  Given your extraordinary pomposity and high-handedness (along with spelling errors) I'll pass on a complete reply as your comments on my post were quite selective.  I will leave you (all) with one question:

Assuming yet more stimulus is the answer, at what point might you rethink?  Let's say we stimulate with another, say, $500 billion and 3 years later we still have punk growth and high unemployment.  At that point what's plan B?  I'm pretty well steeped and educated in Keynesian economics--how much do you know about the Austrian school?  This is really tough stuff and the stakes are enormous.  With debt (all in including state/local) now near 80% of gdp my own view is that we're at sufficiently dangerous levels to make more deficit spending dangerous---to our kids and grandkids.  I think it's terribly naive to think this is something we can fix later once the economy is humming again.

Bite, someone wrote a detailed reply to you, and you did not comment on it. Why?[/quote]
