The Classic Krugman Pushback

liberalsarecool:

CNBC’s Joe Kernen: “It goes back to our forefathers, who said limited government, low taxes,”

NYT’s Paul Krugman: “I don’t remember actually hearing about that. I don’t think that’s in there.”

Federal income tax was created in 1913.

Krugman added: “People getting their news from sources like that are probably getting terrible advice about any kind of investment that depends on macroeconomics.”
