New York Times Columnist Line of the Day

Ha, two years since I typed that headline and the muscle memory is still in severely good shape. Anyways…

If you’re one of the three people who remembers this here blog from its hay-day, you have once in a blue moon checked out the New York Times op-ed page. You probably recognize the names of the columnists, who every day spout the most conventionally wise of the conventional wisdom. This is a feature that is dedicated to these folks, highlighting one line that is either funny, ridiculous, strange, or actually intelligent or well-written.

Today\’s is from Paul \”The Good Doctor\” Krugman, who in his column today, \”The Populist Imperative\” wisely notes:

\”Like it or not, the simple fact is that Americans “get” inequality; macroeconomics, not so much.\”
