More and more people are discovering Paul Krugman's intellectual dishonesty. It took me about a year, at which time I stopped reading him. There are plenty of intellectually honest people out there, some of whom have different beliefs and values than I do. I can engage them, reason with them, and learn from them. Krugman isn't interested in rational engagement; he's interested in brutalizing people. To his mind, the end—transforming this country into a socialist utopia—justifies the means.
