I somehow missed this, which is from a November 2010 edition of ABC's This Week:
Paul Krugman: "Some years down the pike, we're going get the real solution [to Medicare], which is going to be a combination of death panels and sales taxes.... We're actually going to take Medicare under control and we're going to have to get some additional revenue, probably from a VAT. But it's not going to happen now..."
I read a New Yorker puff piece about Krugman a few years ago. Buried deep in the article was Krugman saying that he didn't have any money in the stock market- never had. Why? One would think that a super-genius economist like PK would be lethal stock picker. I got the feeling he didn't believe in capitalism at all. Which is convenient because I don't think he could make an honest nickel in the real world of commerce.
