You were completely isolationist until that sad, that devastating, awful day. When Smerconish argued that the United States had a role as “liberators” Waters responded: “You have no role as liberators… you got into World War II Pearl Harbor. Waters blamed Biden’s administration for failing to prevent the Ukraine invasion from taking place, saying: “This war is basically about the action and reaction of NATO pushing right up to the Russian border – which they promised they wouldn’t do when Gorbachev negotiated the withdrawal of the U.S.S.R. President Joe Biden a “criminal” who was “just getting started” after he’d previously hammered Donald Trump during an earlier tour. The discussion turned to Waters’ labeling of U.S. They just don’t appear to be helping matters much.He continued: “If This is Not a Drill has a message, it is that we have to communicate, one with the other.” That led Smerconish to say he didn’t always agree with Waters’ messages, but he countered: “I’ve only got one message: ‘Two strangers passing in the street / By chance two passing glances meet / And I am you and what I see is me.’ That is my message and that was on Meddle which was in 1970 and basically my message hasn’t changed – I recognize your humanity but I recognize all the Russians and the Chinese and the Ukrainians and the Yemenis and the Palestinians.” dig out of the Great Depression, largely because it generated jobs and exports.īut the way most people seem to feel these days, aliens have been in Washington for some time.
The war was the single biggest factor in finally helping the U.S. did during World War II when tax rates were astronomical. While Krugman is obviously using the idea as a provocative thought experiment, there’s a serious argument behind it, which boils down to the government gaining the incentive to raise taxes so it could build war-fighting materials, much like the U.S. “If we discovered that space aliens were planning to attack, and we needed a massive build-up to counter the space alien threat, and inflation and budget deficits took secondary place to that, this slump would be over in 18 months,” Krugman says, referencing an episode of The Twilight Show in which an alien threat was manufactured to bring about world peace. ( MORE: Why It Pays to Ignore the Financial News) While talking off the cuff on Fareed Zakaria’s GPS program (Zakaria is also a TIME Magazine contributor), Krugman conjectured about what would happen if aliens landed on earth and attacked us. So maybe that’s why Krugman has aliens on the brain. Paul Krugman probably feels like an alien himself these days, considering Washington is completely ignoring his unwavering arguments for more fiscal stimulus as President Obama and Congressional Republicans try to out-deficit-reduce each other. Follow to the New York Times columnist and Nobel Prize laureate, you know what would end the economic slump in 18 months? Aliens.
