Paul Krugman 9/11 Blog Post Stokes Controversy


What's most disturbing to me about the reaction to Krugman's remarks is that the US response to 9/11 (neocon & neolib war instigatio­n versus treating it as a criminal act) has been amply demonstrat­ed to be wrong on every front.  It's cost trillions of dollars and we're no safer from terrorist attacks (and arguably we are more vulnerable to attacks -- We're certainly more hated) and have lost our civil liberties and destroyed our middle class in the process.

Yet the same people who brought us to this destructio­n are still in charge and continuing all of the same policies, while those of us who were correct and shouted down after 9/11 are still trying to reason with the neocons & neolibs.

When are we going to realize that there is no reasoning with the power hungry/gre­edy and work to get them out of government and ourselves into the driver's seat?
