From Krugman,
There’s Something About Money


The republican mind doesn't understand much of anything. How many of the "Simple People" understand ISLM or have even heard of Hicks?


So what good is the republican mind? The republican mind does provide a type of comedy not found anywhere else. Where else can you find out that: QE drives the stock market, emerging markets are doomed with the end of QE, guns reduce crime, Reagan was for low taxes, smaller govt, etc..., Keynes is scam (LOL!), the big blogs say 1 million jobs were lost in a month, inflation is running at double digits, CO2 causes cooling, coal jobs didn't return because of Obama (no mention of natural gas), Benghazi!, FDR wanted to privatize social security, etc.......

You can criticize the republican mind but not too much; you don't want to discourage them from writing or talking!

"I always go back to, you know, Francisco d’Anconia’s speech, at Bill Taggart’s wedding, on money when I think about monetary policy. Then I go to the 64-page John Galt speech, you know, on the radio at the end, and go back to a lot of other things that she did, to try and make sure that I can check my premises.​

"Yes, that’s Paul Ryan citing a second-tier character in Atlas Shrugged as the ultimate authority on monetary policy; and we’re not talking about when he was an adolescent, we’re talking about someone who was already a rising Republican star."

Lmao.

On a side note, if I were you I'd be sleeping now, so I could take my scope out tonight, in the warm, clear, dry desert air you enjoy, and spend the whole night under the stars.

(Yes, I'm envious.)

Still in the 30s at night, so a long way from "warm", or planting seed. But the perennials and trees are waking up. So I can't drag my feet about cleaning things up and getting the beds ready. Days are great. Lots of bike time.
