Catching up on Krugman

Paul Krugman's column is back out in the open, and I have a lot of deferred gratification to catch up on.

Sometimes procrastination wins. I'm just glad I didn't sign up for the now-defunct TimesSelect a week ago. It was on my to-do list for someday.

Here's a Krugman quote I like (and it's not from too long ago):

[F]our years of economic growth have produced essentially no gains for ordinary American workers.

The Bushist Leona Helmsley types can't figure out why the rest of us won't celebrate their good fortune just because we haven't shared in it.
