Paul Krugman kwestionuje powszechną na świecie strategię bezpośredniego celu inflacyjnego na poziomie 2%. Zdaniem Krugmana można za cel przyjąć inflację w wysokości 4, albo 5%. Chwali Fed za deklaracje , że stopy pozostaną niskie, to znaczy praktycznie zerowe, przez kolejne 3 lata. - To jest „coś”, ale można by uzyskać więcej podnosząc poziomy inflacji - uważa Krugman.

North Korea As The Commie Nazi State
The death of North Korea’s dictator Kim Jong-il and his replacement with his son Kim Jong-un, rattled Asian markets in general and South Korea’s in particular. Something that one wouldn’t think should happen considering that North Korea has virtually no trade or other economic interaction with any other Asian country except China-and even for China [...]
Government spending jobs myth
Do increases in government spending increase or decrease the number of jobs? Conventional wisdom is they will increase jobs, and a few left-wing economists, such as Paul Krugman of the New York Times, frequently are trotted out by reckless politicians and some in the news media to argue that we need more government spending in order to [...]
Just As Ugly with Less
In “50 Economic Numbers From 2011 That Are Almost Too Crazy To Believe,” the Economic Collapse blog offers up a hefty list of bullet points that accurately describe an economy teetering on the edge of disaster. That said, 50 might just be a bit of overkill. In truth, the 10 I’ve highlighted below paint a pretty [...]
Obama Is An Awful Economic Historian
Last week in Kansas, President Obama laid out his vision of economic history. In example after example drawn from the last hundred years, he showed that interventions on the part of the federal government in the form of taxes and regulations have proven to bring the free-market system to its optimal best. Restraint on taxes [...]
Democracy vs Bureaucracy
The financial crisis in Europe has resulted in the appointment of new prime ministers in both Greece and Italy, in reality, by the Germans and French, rather than through the ballot box in Greece and Italy. This raises the question, “Is it possible to have both a bureaucratic welfare state and a democracy that protects [...]
Racja Greenspana
“Piętnaście lat później” (”15 Years Later“), zatytułował swój post na blogu 15 grudnia amerykański naukowiec Uniwersytetu Harvarda, Greg Mankiw. W czasie, kiedy większość publicystów zajęta jest omawianiem problemu fiskalnego i bankowego Europy, niektórzy amerykańscy ekonomiści przyglądają się tabeli kursów akcji. A nielubianego do niedawna byłego szefa Fed, Alana Greenspana (w 2009 roku został między innymi umieszczony [...]
Chinese Foreign Reserves Are Falling
I noted in October the irony of blaming the U.S. trade deficit on China’s policy of a semi-fixed exchange rate considering that the yuan has in fact been far stronger than that of non-Japanese Asian countries with floating exchange rates and for that matter currencies of European countries with large surpluses like Switzerland, Norway and [...]

More Trouble to Come
One key theme of my last two books, Financial Armageddon (published in 2007) and When Giants Fall (published in 2009), was that we could expect to see a dramatic increase in social instability and political upheaval in the years ahead.
Given what has happened over the past 12 months or so, [...]
