Previously: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3. Kyle Smith has a great piece at the New York Post ripping Paul Krugman’s latest book: “End This Depression Now!  We Need An Extraterrestrial Invasion!”  Well, the first part of that is the book title.  Really, it rips much of Krugman’s idiotic Keynesian philosophy, one that Krugman is [...]
