    This is one of the most compelling arguments against PAYGO made by one of the most respected economic thinkers of our time. We should have listened to him about a larger stimulus in 2008, and we should listen to him now. ⁦@paulkrugman⁩https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/03/opinion/house-democrats-budget-deficit.html …

        @Drew_Hammill perhaps you’d like to debate Krugman on twitter and point out how his view is wrong too?

        NOPE. WRONG. THE NEW DEAL was funded by taxing the uber rich and putting that money back into the Economy. This was after the Rich had given themselves a huge pay raise in the 1920's. #DEPRESSION Here's where the solution was before and where it should be now - 90% top rate:pic.twitter.com/6DLxvLXTZH

        And 100% on all inheritance over some limit, like $1 Million. There is PLENTY OF MONEY in the US economy to pay ALL the bills. And it's mostly being horded by the uber wealthy. That these new legislators don't know this and avoid learning it is a travesty.

        Well Wall Street is much higher this morning after #PayGo and New Tax Cuts took place, in turn it Props them as QE on Steroids basically, and then in turn #Pay_Go Excludes some rules and the Military Can allow unlimited Spending in this.

        It did Pass, and also the New Tax Cuts took place that Trump did and likely QE was included in Pay Go, which would why Wall Street is in the Positive today, plus there is language where Pay Go does not affect Military Spending.

        So is it to late to tell certain members of Congress to change their vote on it or are we stuck with it for the time being?

        Just wish he'd leave out the false statement at the end about how expensive Medicare4All will be. As an economist, he must realize that companies would much prefer paying the government directly as we do for Medicare and cutting out the cost to support the private sector.

        Krugman is a Clintonite. He was positive Obama's campaign promises on healthcare were impossible, until after the election and then everything Obama did was wonderful. I have a hard time using Krugman as a "go to" when he's so political.

        PayGo is a vestige of old ways. At this time, with what faces the planet, we need a radical re-thinking of how we organize our societal systems. Tremendous opportunities to create a more just and habitable world are possible. Without change, we are all doomed. #JustMeansForAll

        Strategy comes to mind, changing the system does not occur all at once, it is built upon a string of successive acts. @RashidaTlaib has made her points, you can read them. Ultimately we should not judge singular acts in a vacuum but be able to sort them within the whole.
