The Krugman Keynesian Klan has their tin foil hat on a lil' tight this week. Trying to associate Glenn Beck with DeBeers somehow. Very weird person, this Krugman guy.

Krugman-in-Wonderland: Gold at $1600? Paul Krugman says it is a nefarious plot by Glenn Beck!

It never ceases to amaze me, the amount of power attributed to Beck. Good deflection I guess.

Krugman said nothing of the sort.

The rightwing propaganda only works on those clueless enough to believe it.

Sadly, that's most conservatives.

What Krugman said was accurate.

Nah, it's not a conspiracy. Krugman just has a gold related article titled:

The Glenn Beck / DeBeers Connection - NYTimes.com

Why have an article centered on gold bashing with "Glenn Beck" in the title? Also, why make some sort of tin foil hat association with DeBeers?

Glenn Beck preaching gloom, doom, Armegeddon and a racist President Obama to his clueless listeners, and now a word from Goldline!

Marketing 101 for dummies.

Unfortunately, Glenn Beck has nothing to do with gold's popularity, unless you are a member of the Krugman Keynesian Klan and subscribe to their cult.

But Ben Bernanke is powerless!

This is the best tinfoilhattery from Krugman since his "spam, spam, spam" article.

What can you say? The global Socialists cannot destroy the individual wealth of the average American who has put some portion, no matter how small, back in precious metals and other investment avenues other than the US dollar. I see this totally consistant with Bernake's comment to Ron Paul last week that he did not consider gold "money".

As long as individual wealth among the American middle and middle-upper class remains it will be very difficult for the global Socialists to achieve "world government". Individualism, religious faith, and self-sufficiency cannot be tolerated; only total allegience to the state and dependence upon it is acceptable to these control freaks.

More than 5 years ago an elderly gentleman I know who used to be a federal bank examiner advised his friends to invest in gold. At that time it was hovering between $400-$500/oz. He forsaw from past experience of growing up poor during the depression and auditing during the S&L scandal the shades of economic fraud to come.

Under Krugman's blog, you see a comment from a member of the Krugman Keynesian Klan that wishes to arrest Ron Paul for insider trading. LOL
