Paul Krugman Doesn't Get It

5. You are very welcome.

It's funny I really like Paul. I will be ever be grateful to him for standing tall during the bush years. He was almost alone among the punditry class in exposing them for what they were. I also wish that he had been invited to join the Obama administration. I believe that had he been, he might have been able to shift the focus from austerity measures to an approach that focused more on the plight of the middle/working classes and to help strengthen the rules governing the banks.

I do not understand what he has to gain from changing his position on Medicare for all (unlike Howard Dean who sold out to the insurance companies) and would really like to know. He supported H.C. over Obama in their primary fight in 2006 and I suppose that we are all human in that once we chose someone we tend to overlook their faults and to agree with them even when they are wrong.
