Is military might always the answer for complex global issues? Paul Krugman challenges the "lethality fairy" fantasy, a dangerous belief that overwhelming violence alone can resolve Iran's intricate challenges. He points out that seizing Kharg Island won't solve oil exports or secure 1,000km of coastline, and President Trump’s inconsistent threats, devoid of coherent strategy, only lead to a quagmire. Dive deeper into Krugman’s critical analysis to understand why this approach lacks an endgame: https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/pete-hegseth-believes-in-the-lethality #Iran #DefensePolicy #Krugman

What happens when democracy is threatened from within? Paul Krugman contrasts the flourishing democracy of post-Carnation Revolution Portugal with the ominous state of American democracy, endangered by Trump's retribution-driven agenda.

Discover more about this crucial discussion. [Source](https://paulkrugman.substack.com/p/trumps-cultural-revolution) #Democracy #Trump #Krugman #CulturalRevolution

Government, administration, nation-state, do not go bankrupt… as long as they issue their currency and maintain an army to enforce it.
In 2020, the Fed "directly lent to corporations or they bought corporate debt off of financial market participants who had this corporate debt, or anyone who really needed to sell it. […] They just made sure that anyone who needed liquidity essentially had it." https://www.crisesnotes.com/musk-in-your-computers-paul-krugman-interviews-nathan-tankus/

Is there really a new economic philosophy? Paul Krugman dissects the misguided narratives around Trump’s economic policies, challenging the notion of a “Mar-a-Lago Accord.” He argues that the prevailing commentary misrepresents ignorance as strategy, with fantasies perpetuated by advisors and journalists misleading the public. Discover how Trump's trade policy, framed as innovative, is actually a reflection of outdated thinking.

The New York Times Opinion section is negotiating the exit of columnist #Pamela #Paul, according to multiple sources familiar with the matter.
Her impending departure is one of a series of job cuts being made at the section.
Last month, #Paul #Krugman, the Nobel Prize-winning economist who had been a part of Opinion since 2000, announced to much fanfare that he was leaving.
The Opinion section has been the site of the paper’s fiercest culture war battles in recent years,
most famously leading to the firing of editor #James #Bennet in 2020 over an op-ed by Senator Tom Cotton calling for the deployment of troops during the George Floyd protests.Since then, under Opinion editor #Kathleen #Kingsbury, management at the Times has labored mightily to show that it is open to a "diversity of thought",
-- an effort that appeared to be spearheaded by Paul, who has taken conservative stances on contentious topics such as gender-affirming youth care.Paul is notable for her willingness to buck liberal-left conventional wisdom:
She has written a defense of J.K. Rowling and scrutinized the MeToo movement for overreach,
while a recent column criticized the American Historical Society’s vote to condemn the ongoing “scholasticide” in Gaza.Some colleagues have said she does little more than produce rage bait,
with what one Times staffer referred to as “intellectually lazy” positions.“It is a rarity inside the Times for someone to manage to make enemies on every desk they touch;
-- Pamela is indeed a rarity,” one newsroom employee said.“She should have spent time making allies if she was going to be as divisive a figure as she was internally.
But she didn’t put the time in there, or at least did not have the interest.”https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/pamela-paul-is-out-at-the-times-opinion-section.html

@sarah_ist_muede Seltsam: Die #FDP unter #Lindner meint, dass wir uns an reichen Menschen orientieren sollen. Noicht an intelligenten Menschen oder Experten. Ich sehe das ganz anders. #Krugman oder #Duflo habeen zur Volkswirtschaft sicherlich mehr zu sagen, als #Musk . Und dabei geht es mir nicht nur darum, dass Erbschaft und Glück die Hauptgründe für den Erwerb von Reichtun sind. Es geht mir dabei darum, dass aus guten Gründen zwischen Betriebswirtschaft und Volkswirtschaft unterschieden wird.
