End This Depression Now!

End This Depression Now! by Paul Krugman

"The Great Recession is more than four years old—and counting. Yet, as Paul Krugman points out in this powerful volley, "Nations rich in resources, talent, and knowledge—all the ingredients for prosperity and a decent standard of living for all—remain in a state of intense pain."

How bad have things gotten? How did we get stuck in what now can only be called a depression? And above all, how do we free ourselves? Krugman pursues these questions with his characteristic lucidity and insight. He has a powerful message for anyone who has suffered over these past four years—a quick, strong recovery is just one step away, if our leaders can find the "intellectual clarity and political will" to end this depression now.

Paul Krugman can rest assured that, come Nov. 6 America will begin to come out of this slump that we have been stuck in for almost 4 years now...I can also answer his question of how we got here & why we're stuck here....but he refused to listen for the last 3 1/2 years now, so why bother trying to explain it to him YET AGAIN??

Well, you can try and 'splain it to nhboy, but how can any depression possibly end, or begin to end, if nhboy is still around to post threads like this?

"Nations rich in resources, talent, and knowledge—all the ingredients for prosperity and a decent standard of living for all—remain in a state of intense pain."

apparently the current administration doesn't have the answers.

Klugman must be hoping for a change.
