Yesterday Paul Krugman wrote
how highly he thinks of Ezra Klein (I do to).
Today he
criticizes someone or other who is well meaning but confused.
a variety of people, some of them well-intentioned, arguing that while sure, inequality is an issue, the crucial thing now is to get the economy growing and create more jobs; these people will argue that populism is a diversion from the main issue.
Who does he have in mind ?
Jon Chait caught Paul Krugman not at all debating David Brooks.
