Would cutting the minimum wage raise employment? - Paul Krugman ...
Proposing wage cuts as a solution to unemployment is a totally counterproductive idea.
Are conservatives right about Republicans and job creation?
Hate in America is a marketing tool and the left is milking it for all it’s worth – to push a liberal agenda. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman and others are laying the groundwork to go after conservative speech – on talk radio, on TV and maybe even in print. In each case, the media are blaming conservatives as haters and ignoring how filled with hate the left is. It’s a ridiculous double-standard.

Isn't it delusional for Liberals to Say Conservatives are Haters and then Hate Them for it?
I am doing a survey among Conservatives and Republicans. This is for research purposes. Please answer honestly and sincerely. The first eleven questions are yes/no: you can write more about it if you choose, but those details will not be included in the survey results. If you do not like the way the question is phrased, then just say no. The last question allows you to write more than yes/no. Thank you for your contributions. 1) Do you consider yourself a Republican? 2) Do you consider yourself a Conservative? 3) Do you believe Obama is a muslim? 4) Do you believe that Obama's birth certificate is a fake, and he is actually not a US citizen? 5) Do you believe Obama wants to kill your grandmother? 6) Do you believe Nobel prize winning economists like Paul Krugman, James Heckman, Robert Solow, and Dan McFadden are actually idiots because they disagree with your theory that cutting taxes solves all economic problems? 7) Do you lose sleep at night to see the stock markets improving under Obama, and most of the leading economists claiming that the recession is over and the economy is going upward from here? 8) Do you pray every night that the unemployment under Obama will go higher than Reagan's 10.8% unemployment in December 1983? 9) The years 2000-2009 is going down as the hottest decade on record, and the hottest 10 years on record have all been in the last 12 years. Despite this, there have been several internet media reports claiming that the earth has been cooling for the last 10 years. Do you believe the earth is in a cooling phase? 10) Do you believe that when the Bible says 'Thou shall not kill', it does not apply to creating wars with Muslim nations? 11) Do you believe liberals and Democrats are trying to destroy America's prosperity? 12) State your highest education level completed and how well you did at that level.As requested, here are the links about global warming: http://www.boston.com/news/politics/politicalintelligence/2009/10/kerry_pushes_cl.html "NASA scientists – the best experts we have – tell us that the last ten years have been the hottest decade on record" http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/2008/ "The ten warmest years all occur within the 12-year period 1997-2008."Note for Sawyer: you have the best answer among the Republicans/Conservatives, but you blew it at the end by saying most successful people did not graduate from college. That is wrong. Yes, there are prominent examples of those who didn't like Ray Kroc and Bill Gates, but they are the minority. Look at those leading forune 500 companies and over 95% have at least one college degree.

Survey: Questions for Republicans and Conservatives?

Are these people Democrats or Republicans? Why!?
The "Reaganomics" revolution is roughly four decades old now, and the only Democratic administration during that period was the only one to balance a budget, yet question after question in Yahoo! answers portrays the Democrats as the fiscally irresponsible ones. Incidentally, David Stockman, Reagan's budget director (recently indicted for securities fraud) admitted, on the record, that Reagan's "Supply-Side" (AKA "voodoo") economics was a "Trojan horse" to simply lower the top tax rates. In the wake of those top tax rate reductions, and in the midst of what was then the largest budget deficit in history, Reagan and Bush 41 quadrupled the doubly regressive social security taxes, contradicting the neo-con meme that lowering taxes increases collections. The Reagan-era economic results were an average business cycle recovery (touted as "Morning in America" by the Wall St. Journal) with flat capital investment, followed by a dismal three or four decades during which most people lost real income. The economy as a whole did *gain* real income because productivity increased -- but the bulk of that increased income / productivity went to the very tippy top of incomes. The actual figures are that the bottom 90% of incomes fell, those at the 90th percentile got roughly a 1% a year increase in real income, and those at the top got a 497% increase in real incomes. These are the actual figures. You can see them cited here: http://select.nytimes.com/2006/02/27/opinion/27krugman.html?_r=1 Read Paul Krugman's "Peddling Prosperity" for the remaining footnotes.

Is there any remedy for neo-con / Republican amnesia?
So Krugman is this big economics guy.. whats so great about him?? What is his philosophy exactly??

I am interested in knowing about Paul Krugman?
Pretty much word for word of the health care rhetoric being spoken about. Not a fan of this approach. http://www.verumserum.com/media/2009/10/Krugman-Transcript.pdfShould have clarified that "Not a fan of this approach" meant the health care reform approach as it currently stands is a joke. Public Option does not create competition, all of it is a ruse.Fixing healthcare for you must mean to saddle up to the government trough. Good for you.Also the Caesar reference was to the NEA chairman calling Obama the best writer since Caesar, read up.

Is Paul Krugman Julius Caesar or....is Barack?
Does anyone know the names of any economists that are in favor of removing the Social Security income cap (and maybe a link to an article where they state this)? I thought Paul Krugman was in favor of it, but then I saw a video clip where he said that it's a mistake for Obama to consider this. I am NOT looking for a debate about the merits (or lack thereof) of this idea. I am writing a term paper and I need some names/articles for research purposes. For some reason I seem to be having trouble finding this in the vast ocean of SS information available on the net. Thanks!

What economists favor removing the FICA OASDI income cap?
Economists are academics who have generally never worked in the real world, never run a business,etc...They also tend to have liberal bias. College professors are 10-1 liberals. You can't honestly tell me that guys like paul krugman aren't motivated by their political beliefs.Imo, I still think economics is nothing more than a pseudo-science. A majority of economists supported the bailouts and stimulus and look where that got us. Unemployment is still increasing...http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A8427-2005Mar28.html College professor bias, here you go.
