Famous quotes by Paul Krugman:

"There's not a hint in his work of support for the right-wing supply-side doctrine."

"The United States in particular and the West in general should be feeling a little embarrassed about all that lecturing we did to the Third World."

"There was from the advanced countries, and the United States in particular, a very strong moralistic streak. They lectured [Asian] countries on their almost moral failings."

"The French, unfortunately, actually believe what they say, and that has been very destructive,"

"The great thing about Greenspan,"

"unsustainable situations usually go on longer than most economists think possible. But they always end, and when they do, it's often painful."

"Those tax cuts, rather than the spending binge, are the primary cause of the (federal) deficit."

"The fact that we're here celebrating Social Security shows some politicians' promises are worth more than others. Social Security as it is currently constituted is very efficient. We're talking about a system that really works quite well."

"The fundamental fact of American politics - and I've sharpened my view on this since last year and the hardcover edition of the book - is that we've got an alliance between the religious right and the accumulators of great wealth. Those are the people who are running things."

"But the vitriol also reflects the fact that many of the people at the Republican National Convention, for all their flag-waving, hate America. They want a controlled, monolithic society; they fear and loathe our nation's freedom, diversity and complexity."

"The real danger with debt is what happens if lots of people decide, or are forced, to pay it off at the same time."

"Debt is one person's liability, but another person's asset."

"I think so long as fossil fuels are cheap, people will use them and it will postpone a movement towards new technologies."

"The great thing about fiscal policy is that it has a direct impact and doesn't require you to bind the hands of future policymakers."

"Social Security is a social insurance program - it is not designed to be the same thing as a 401(k)."

"We know that advanced economies with stable governments that borrow in their own currency are capable of running up very high levels of debt without crisis."

"I admit it: I had fun watching right-wingers go wild as health reform finally became law."

"I don't think I've had any great success in predicting politics or social change, nor have I really tried."

"I have friends, political scientists, sociologists, who all share an interest at least in certain kinds of science fiction."

"The problem isn't that people don't understand how good things are. It's that they know, from personal experience, that things really aren't that good."
