Atlas and Paul Krugman, as well as whatever political stuff I see from some religious Youtube channels. Nothing else at this point.
You like Paul Krugman? Interesting, I'd never have expected.
I have found him to be quite prescient regarding his political and economic commentary (having seen his archive going back to 2000 and earlier), and I think any Republican ought to take him seriously in light of his track record. Plus, I just like listening to the guy, which perhaps is odd for someone with my views, but it is always a treat to hear him discuss his economic forecasts globally.
I'm glad you think so. Krugman is probably my favorite pundit, despite the fact that I've been disagreeing with him a lot lately. The Conscience of a Liberal has shaped my understanding on American politics, and while you'll strongly disagree with most of his points I think you might still find it a worthwhile read.
I've read excerpts of it and found it pretty fascinating. One thing I like about Krugman is he often frames his economic philosophy as returning to America's post-WWII economic policies. As someone who has fond feelings about that era (though more with respect to social/religious issues than economic), I find that approach far more compelling to me than appeals to left-leaning economics based on it being "new" or making "forward progress" or the like.
True! I find it pretty funny how both liberals and conservatives can feel nostalgia for the post-WW2 era for completely different reasons.
Liberals want to work in the 1950's. Conservatives want to go home there - Ross Douthat
