Don't know about Krugman - apparently he showed some intelligence 40 or 50 years ago. Do know about Robert Reich who is an economics professor (and former cabinet official) who stated that low oil prices were a great opportunity to switch away from petroleum products.

Another thing to notice about Scott is that even though he's high IQ and from a family of doctors he still couldn't get into an American medical school. There's no barrier to having the ideology - there is a barrier to being accepted and certified by the system that he ran into.
