(10,622 posts)I suppose that article means the Democrats are ready to begin using that horrid Keynesian model again, any day now, any day, but what would Goldman Sachs think? I hope she remembers who her true friends are and does not push for things like taxing corporations like we did 40 years ago, and shudder work programs to abate the un/under employment issue like FDR did during his depression, not doing that stuff has helped our true friends keep profits up and wages down. I also hope she doesn't raise the cap on SS, but rather does the sensible thing and finds a way to reduce payouts as much as possible like the adults think is the correct thing to do.
Your article has me frightened that she may not be far center/right enough for the usual Clinton fund raising model to work effectively.
My hope is that Krugman is simply preferring to endorse the lesser of two evils because he dislikes Republicans, that strategy has worked for us for thirty years now so I prefer to remain optimistic that that is what is at play here and the adults will win in the end.
