Does that include Obama's self proclaimed (or White House proclaimed) war on coal?
Using the most optimistic assumptions, says
If Obama and the EPA wins the War on Coal and we put hundreds of people out of work and increase the cost of electricity for poor and wealthy alike (although obviously,
Obama and his rich pals don't care about the cost increase), here's our prize.
In the year 2100 the world might be 0.02°C cooler.
'In fact, the Republicans controlling that government were so eager to cut off aid that they didn’t just reduce the duration of benefits; they also reduced the average weekly benefit, making the state ineligible for about $700 million in federal aid to the long-term unemployed'.
For people who claim to believe in God, they devote a lot of time, effort and money to evil. Sick.
the US Government used to be in favor of inexpensive electricity, because it was rightly seen as the savior of the poor farmer and the poor housewife. Now, however, the government and the climate alarmists are doing every single thing that they can to make energy more expensive just like they are with trying to increase gas prices.
The unemployed don't hire armies of lobbyists and lawyers to write legislation favorable to special interests. They don't make multimillion dollar political contributions. Today's GOP, being a wholly owned corporate subsidiary, would have no interest in their fate other than to limit funds for benefits which could instead go to tax cuts for the wealthy.
The Democrats better win this war or the right wingers will suck it down into hell.

Oh cut it out!!! You think giving 12 million illegal Mexicans amnesty (like the Democrats want to do) ISNT making war on the unemployed?????
How is that helping the middle class when you have more people going after the same jobs?????

I don't recall the Bible ever mentioning taxes confiscated from the taxpayers to be distributed as welfare at the point of a Roman spear.
Funny. Before Krugman became a bootlicker for Obama, you know, back when he acted like an economist from time to time, he knew that increasing unemployment benefits would result in higher unemployment. Now he's pretty sure that if we waste enough money, we can spend our way to prosperity.
You obviously don't read Dr. Krugman's column nor blog. He is one of Obama's critics on the economy and foreign affairs.
Dr. Krugman NEVER claimed that increasing unemployment benefits would result in higher unemployment and he just wrote "Moochers, Grifters, and the Beveridge Curve" today, which underscores his position.
The alien invasion example was a illustration of how nobody minds spending money on war, which is stimulative. So just have a fake alien invasion. You can read about it here.
