Paul Krugman wins Nobel for economics
 
A longtime critic of the unlimited ruling of the financial market getting the Nobel at a time of maximum financial crisis (for his work on international trade patterns), and a much-hated columnist of the liberal if not communist NYT - after the controversy about the award for literature this year, the second decision of the committee that hardcore conservatives in the US will not live well with. - Right so! :D

I thoroughly recommend his book - The Return of Depression Economics

The vituperative American far right, has no tolerance for anything in disagreement with their peculiar view of the world. I suspect no-one bothered to inform them that the cold war is over. Actually some of them are still stuck in the McCarthy era.

Or maybe they're booing her for reading at all :rotfl:

Man, that's just one of the reasons I don't like that girl. I don't know how you do things in the states, but in election times over here, we don't throw mud at eachother...at least not like that!

Hey now,

Some of us "far-rightists" prefer to reside in the Jeffersonian era. McCarthyists are communists to us:D
