This is the Original File, NOT Some Crappy PDF Conversion! Book Description Publication Date: April 1, 2012 Why do modern economies go through the “business cycle” of booms and busts? What caused the U.S. housing bubble that precipitated the financial crisis? Who correctly predicted it and who should we listen to for wisdom moving forward? Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman is an examination of the root cause of the crisis as seen through the eyes of two prominent commentators on the subject, each representing a different school of economic thought. Congressman and presidential candidate Ron Paul is today perhaps the most visible proponent of the Austrian school, whose luminaries include Ludwig von Mises and Nobel Prize-winning economist Friedrich A. Hayek. Nobel Prize-winning economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is today perhaps the most well-known voice for the Keynesian school, whose adherents espouse the theories of British economist John Maynard Keynes. A comparative analysis of these two schools of economic thought as applied to the financial crisis and as promulgated through the views of Ron Paul and Paul Krugman is instructive. Whose school offered more explanatory and predictive power? Whose diagnosis and prescriptions have been better suited to deal with the problem? Who should we listen to now? Editorial Reviews "The reader does not have to be highly knowledgeable about the world of economic theory to understand Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman. Clearly written, and with an obvious and well supported perspective..." -- Jim Miles, Foreign Policy Journal About the Author Jeremy R.

Keynesian economics is superior. Ron Paul is retarded.

Put me in the "Keynesian economics is superior. Ron Paul is retarded" camp....
IMO (notice I left out the "H" because I'm NOT humble) the only reason many kids are supporting Paul is he wants to legalize drugs and pretty much end military funding and intervention.
There has to be some middle ground on these issues... and considering the GOP wants to increase the military budget by one Trillion beyond what the Pentagon has asked for (yes, I said "Trillion") there's a LOT of middle ground there between being the "policemen of the world" or cowering under our beds.
Also simply legalizing pot and taxing it wouldn't really help the gov't as far as increased revenue, however the imputed income of NOT spending untold amounts of money to pursue and imprison non-criminals (or what should be non-criminals) which devastates families for no good end would be enormous.
Do you hear me Democrats?
Ron Paul wants to pretty much de-fund all of government which is well, fucking stupid (it's a technical term) and also de-fund Pell grants and student loans as well as the Department of Education.
Get off your asses, register and VOTE! AND write your representatives/Senators.
We can NOT allow the Idiot Right OR the Ron Paul crowd to ruin our country.... that means making your voices heard by the DNC and the government.

Ron Paul is any idiot for wanting his free for all economy with out of control corporations, but neutering our military funding is NOT "cowering under our beds". That shows how effective propaganda has been on you. No other country has military bases in hundreds of countries all over the world. No country in history has gotten away with that without being called an empire.
Ron Paul is a pathetic little irrelevant elf, and just look at the creepy, lowlife piece of garbage he spawned...
