GuestYes, Rich, I agree.
I’m glad you clarified that eventually, we’ll pay for the Krugman-esque policies, which in the immediate term are working.
I hope that I’m prescient enough to at least feel the coming distortions, whether they occur a couple years from now, or decades from now.
I wouldn’t mind some pain, but for right now, most everyone (on the left and on the right) is thankful for the Krugman-esque policies.
It is interesting that Republican leaders are pontificating about the harm that bailouts are causing while their voters (other than the ideological social conservatives) keep wishing for more Krugman-esque government support to prop up their value of their houses.
So, Krugman is indeed riding high. His policies are working.

ParticipantIf you call working, a temporary delay before an inevitable collapse of mass bankruptcies dovetailing into a currency collapse, caused by the debts taken to allow the temporary delay. Then yes, they are working to temporarily allow the population to feel good.
To be followed by:
The anger and recrimination that are coming this time will be something almost none of us have any experience with, and it will be terribly easy to be caught up in it. Don’t do it, as that kind of vengeful and punitive mindset will drain energy and resources from what you need to do to help yourself and your loved ones. Ultimately it fractures the trust that holds society together at a time when cohesiveness matters most. While this is inevitable at a national scale, it need not be at a very local level where a few individuals can make a difference.
Soon to a theater near you.

How soon? That’s the question.
If you make me expect it too much I’ll be very let down when it doesn’t come.
I can only see 6 months to 1 year ahead, at the most.
If you keep on telling a girl that you’ll marry her but can never save enough to buy her a ring, what do you think will happen?
