Nearly every economist that's been right

Wow, such a stretch to go out and find some guys that differ from the overwhelming consensus. What's striking about their take though is that it's a continuation of the very theories on economics that landed us where we are today. I'm going to trust people like Krugman or Robert Samuelson over people calling for lower taxes. They bristle at parts of the stimulus plan but are smart enough to know that the good greatly outweighs the bad.

What's so hilarious is the very people you're trying to protect, those captains of industry with their exorbitant salaries and perks, wouldn't give you the time of day if you were in the same room as they were. They'd wonder if you were there to scrub the crap off their toilets.
