Social insurance, safety net or pension plan?

I'm just not sure which one of those three things New York Times columnist Paul Krugman believes Social Security to be -- it changes at least once a week. Krugman's column in today's New York Times slams Wal-Mart for its low wages and laments the fact that Wal-Mart workers will depend heavily on Social Security. […]

He's a socialist

If there was any doubt before, it can be set to rest now, The New York Times' columnist Paul Krugman is a socialist. Krugman -- still lacking a Social Security plan of his own -- assails the president for suggesting what amounts to means-testing of the proverbial "safety net." Krugman charges the president for being […]

Shocking!

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman continues his articles bashing America's health care system, ignoring his long-ago promise to offer solutions for Social Security. There was a brief flurry of outrage when Congress passed the 2003 Medicare bill. The news media reported on the scandalous vote in the House of Representatives: Republican leaders violated parliamentary […]

Big number

I missed the milestone earlier this week, but on Monday The New York Times published Paul Krugman's 500th column. The indispensible Lying in Ponds noted that Krugman continues to bat 1.000 -- over the course of 500 columns Krugman has devoted not one to praise of a Republican nor criticism of a Democrat. Krugman would […]

The gift that keeps on giving

The New York Times' Paul Krugman has decided to take a break from his demogoguing America's health care system to outline his plan for fixing Social Security. Just kidding. The numbers in the graphic above have changed again -- except for the goose egg for solutions. Nope, instead Krugman does what he has done ever […]

Still no answers

New York Times columnist continues to deliver on his promise to demagogue America's health care system, but ignores his long-ago promise to offer solutions to the Social Security crisis. For those who are interested in some of the problems with Krugman's analysis, I point you to this piece by David Hogberg.

This just in

Paul Krugman thinks the economy is in the tank. Where I come from, we call days like this "Monday."

Another week...

Another failure by The New York Times' Paul Krugman to deliver on his promise provide the "Krugman plan" for saving Social Security. No, Krugman would rather falsely disparage the quality of American healthcare. [T]he United States spends far more on health care than other advanced countries. Yet we don't appear to receive more medical services. […]

Promises, promises

So, Paul Krugman's got a new column out today. The graphic's still at the top of the page. All of the numbers are larger, except for the one right before the word "solutions" -- that's still a big fat zero. It's been over three months, and still Krugman hasn't proffered his Social Security solutions. That […]

Krugman returns

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is back from his week off. Did he use this time to formulate his much-anticipated plan to save Social Security? Well, the changed numbers in the banner atop this page should answer that question. No, instead Krugman returns with vitriol and decides to compare his caricature of the "religious […]
