Paul Krugman : The Bleeding Cure


The Bleeding Cure
Sept. 18, 2011

In the United States, the modest federal stimulus of 2009 has faded out, while state and local governments have slashed their budgets, so that over all we’ve had a de facto move toward austerity not so different from Europe’s.
Strange to say, however, confidence hasn’t surged.
