It is great to get your posts, but like Patrick Barron
at times you forget your audience.
Where are the citations for the Murphy comments?
Instead of read more is it now talk more?
Really we need you to come to country of your birth.

Observations on Paul Krugman’s Column:
“Medicaid and Freedom”Samuel L. Skogstad
New York Times columnist—or, more accurately,
polemicist—Paul Krugman is also a Nobel Laureate
in economics, and a distinguished professor at
Columbia University. Yet his NYT columns regularly
and consistently overflow with flaming, hate-filled
rhetoric against “conservatives” and “Republicans.”
Exaggeration, vilification, and sweeping unsupported
generalizations are his preferred tools of “analysis.”
His “Medicaid and Freedom,” reprinted in the
Sarasota Herald Tribune on April 9, 2013 is an
excellent example of his use of these instruments
of bigotry and demagoguery.
In that column he reiterates his usual theme,
namely that “the U.S. Right” (which he uses
interchangeably with “conservative,” and
“republican”) only favors policies “comforting
the comfortable, and afflicting the afflicted.”
The proof he offers is the expected opposition
of many Republicans to the Medicaid expansion
in President Obama’s proposed FY 2014 budget.
He adds that “Republicans oppose the expansion
of programs that help the less fortunate.”
Krugman’s intellectual contortions allow him
to conclude that the massive expansion of
government control over the production,
delivery and pricing of health care and health
insurance (he doesn’t distinguish between
the two,) (aka Obamacare) will greatly increase
individual freedom. If you oppose it you oppose
freedom. This is the way charlatans argue.
What has become of the modest and respected
scholar who toils away in the vineyards of
academia, seeking truth through honest,
objective and rigorous inquiry?
This observer and many of his fellow economists
believe that Obamacare is a nightmare of
confusion and complexity, precisely because it
seizes control over the production and delivery
of health insurance and care. If the problem is
that too few people can afford access to the
healthcare system, a far less expensive and
less inefficient way to attack it would seem to
be to let the public sector role in paying for it
expand, while relying on the price system and
free private markets to deal with its production
and delivery. There is much room for legitimate
debate on the definition of the problem and
possible solutions. But Krugman is not advancing
the cause of honest dialogue by merely
genuflecting before Obamacare and vilifying
people with competing points of view.
