I thought Paul Krugman was an 'economist'?

Oh, yeah....he said 'sell stocks', because if Trump is elected the economy will die and the stock market will crash.

I see the same story as Krugman and feel I am in fine company.

That is the story I have been trying to tell for the last 24 months.

No less and no more, but I did feel the proper volume should be higher than many thought. i think Krugman has the volume correct to correspond to the danger.

If I have been crude in my presentation, or insensitive, it was only due to my shortcomings, and not by intent to be right or overbearing. I always thought it was a story everyone needed to understand as it was so dangerous to our country.

My intent was to tell a story and have it be correct. It was never meant to be competition for who is right or wrong, or who is being smart or dumb.

However, as I can have sympathy for ignorance of a subject, I cannot have the same sympathy for willful ignorance that has harm as its objective.
