Economist turned whore - I think Krugman is that fellow.

Then I take it you have never seen Kudlow on his show. If you had, you wouldn't be embarrassing yourself by using him as a reference.....at least I hope not.

In reality, we got a job increase of 18K, not 200K, and an unemployment rate that jumped from 4.7% to 5.0%.....the biggest jump in several years.

That doesn't equate "we are now in recession" as you wish to believe.

I never said we were. None of us, including you, know for sure. But the economic signs suggest we are heading in that direction if not already there. Amazingly, the GOP candidates are ignoring the issue. What a strange bunch you all are.

Do you honestly think I want a recession? A dem is winning the presidential election with or without a recession.

Perhaps you are unaware of your internal motivations, but yes.

Well dude, a psychologist you are not. Once again, you are embarrassing yourself by making assumptions that have no bearing in reality.

Let me shift the conversation a bit. If we are in recession or headed toward an imminent recession (I consider this a possibility), why would the solution be to raise taxes?

I said to raise taxes only where needed to balance the budget. And if there were to happen I would mainly target the rich elite in this country.
