<<Krugmans ideas make more sense to you - why?>.

I can give you a bunch of whys, but the number one why, IMO, is that Dr. Paul as you like to call him, doesn't give a shit about the poor. Nor do the neo cons, or Randians.

Krugman is thinking about the welfare of our total soceity all the time, the poor all the time.

And it is lucky he also is a brilliant economist. You can question one man, Krugman, but what about guys like Stiglitz who echo Krugman, or the other 80% or so of the economists who use their economic theories in practise and teach them at universities around the world.

Few teach or use Pauls economic ideas.
