You're right, what does a Nobel Prize economist know about the economy?

Keep sticking with that discredited economic theory.

Is the evidence for austerity based on an Excel spreadsheet error?

Bottom line is, history and facts have not been kind to the Republicans for over a decade. Next up, immigration, gun control, gay marriages and economy; all of which the Democrats will take with flying colors.

Hahahaha..........you talk about facts, yet your example is opinion.

Nobel Prize winner? Really? Didn't "I'll blow them to smithereens with a drone, regardless of collateral casualties" Obama win a Nobel Prize?

Europe's austerity exercise has proven Krugman correct. If austerity works, then Europe would be doing better.

Believing failed economic theories just because it is the opposite of what the other side thinks says more about you than it does about Krugman.

Anyone who thinks that the government buying billions of dollars in goods and services doesn't make a difference, simply doesn't know what they are talking about.

Once again, if government spending stimulated, then why are areas with the highest number of citizens on welfare, not ever stimulated?
