Krugtron the Invincible, Part 3

"In my previous two articles, I have shown that Paul Krugman - revered by his acolytes as the Invincible Krugtron - failed to anticipate the financial crisis and wrongly predicted that the single European currency would fall victim to it."



What you've shown in 3 articles is the depth of your spectacularly petty jealousy and a desperate pathological need to be considered better at things (economics and the application of logical thought with facts for starters) that you have demonstrated time and again over the years to be rather poor at.

What Reid, Pelosi, and Obama Should Say Now

If you're going to go so far as to introduce a Constitutional Amendment on the matter of Congressional pay, you're leaving half the cake on the table.



One thing that something in the neighborhood of 70% (polls vary depending on the questions) of the voters believe is that DC has been taken over by greedy manipulators. People ranging from Tea Partyers to Communists may disagree on which of the parties or individuals in Congress are beholden to lobbyists (Dems are supposedly in the pockets of trial lawyers, Reps in the pockets of anyone with some money inside those pockets) - but there is uniform dislike to the Citizen's United decision and the amount of money spent on elections.



So if you want to make the Amendment even MORE popular, include a provision that gives the FEC and (!) the States the ability to regulate financing of federal elections and explicitly states that campaign contributions and campaign activities are NOT equivalent to Free Speech. For any given State, whichever laws are more stringent on candidates takes precedence.



Add the impossible task of defending unlimited campaign contributions to the republican's to-do list (a fight they will vigorously wage to their detriment) and ride the wind to House majority in 2014.
