Well, he outranks you.

In case people are interested in opinions they wouldn't otherwise be exposed to - it's healthy.

I'm willing to listen to opposing views, but Krugman is a hack, and

Krugman's economic beliefs are questionable, he is a shill for globalism and big government more than a true thinker.

he is a shill for globalism and big government

Well, it's certainly a partisan piece, but I like some of the points he raises, and I think it's inescapable that government regulation is part of action on global warming:

If you take environmental issues seriously, you are led to the need for government regulation of some kind, so rigid free-market ideologues don’t want to believe that environmental concerns are real (although apparently forcing consumers to subsidize coal is fine).

Your link on Krugman shows up 404 for me...

I agree government needs to be involved in environmental issues. The problem here is we don't actually know for certain how we are changing the climate. As pointed out, it isn't totally settled science, and if you present an apposing view you're ostracized.

He does indeed. Both of you are on the same level 😂😂😂
