Happy Birthday Paul Krugman
56 today.

Curiously it is also the birthday of essayist Michel de Montaigne who was born 400 years before Paul. He gets the quote of the day "Men are most apt to believe what they least understand."

That certainly seems true for Reaganomics.

3. Happy Birthday, Paul Krugman!
You've been our Thomas Paine during the Bush Admin and long may you continue your critiques and evaluations of White House Administrations.
