Crisis? I didnt see it coming

Krugman admitted that he didnt see the present financial crisis coming! Which just goes to show - those who can will rip off the public & and those who can't will teach & get the Nobel Prize

Krugman

A Joke - the Nobel prize sure ain't what it used to be. Krugman got the prize due to the Anti Bush bias of the committee - This one goes right up there with the Gore "Peace" prize

Krugman- Poor Choice for Nobel Prize

Groan- Krugman is a political, anti-America/Busg choice for the Noble Prize! What a shame! Someone like Prof Jagdish Bhagwati from Columbia who does real, excellent Economic work on trade should win. This cheapens the Noble Prize.

congratulations

prof . its my plesure to take this chance to say that i am one among the many students who are studying international economics its realy well a explained book and the theories apply to what is happening to the world today ,, the international crises...... of which am sure if our politícians would have given some little attention to what you wrote , the economy would have not clashed down to the point it is now. I hope that this nobel price will alert them to change their altitudes. congratulations onces more
I am studying economics in Brasil (universidade do estado do rio de janeiro (uerj) in portugues and it will a great pleasure if one day i make it to have you as my professor.

Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences-Mr. P KRUGMAN

CONGRATULATIONS !!! Mr. P. KRUGMAN. Its with great pleasure that I send in these few words of mine. I am just a holder of the American GED-equivalence in my country Cameroon found at the ampit of the African continent. I simply developed interest in you as per your position vis-a-vis the ruling gov't of America and its economic policies that have led to the economic recession. Now working on a bailout plan, who is being bailed out here and why? Sir, you must be a busy and responsible personality but if you could find the slightest of free time, would you mind elucidating on this whole mess (economic recession), what is being done to remedy capitalism, how it's going to work and who will be responsible? If tax payers have to throw-in some of their hard earned money, how much of that will be recovered and for how long? What has been slated for those responsible for this nose-dive?
