Repairing the Damage

More than 200,000 signatures on a petition to appoint Paul Krugman Treasury Secretary sent an important message of support that can't be ignored.

It's time to drown out the voices of the wackoes supporting wrong-headed economic policies that have penalized the economy and punished Americans, sabotaged government.

Jack Lew served at a time of budget surpluses under President Clinton. It's time to undo the damage wrought by Right Wingers, following the flawed policies of Grover Norquist and others.

Will Jack Lew be the man for the job?




Preview: Paul Krugman on Jack Lew, Obama’s Treasury Choice

January 10, 2013
 
Our current obsession with slashing the deficit is getting in the way of real work that needs to be done to preserve both our economy and our democracy. It’s all about jobs, says Paul Krugman, who joins Bill Moyers on the next Moyers & Company. In this preview clip, the Nobel Prize-winning economist and New York Times columnist discusses President Obama’s choice for Treasury Secretary, Jack Lew, as well as his reaction to public support for Krugman himself in that job.

“The Secretary of the Treasury is not now going to be somebody who does deep thinking about the economy. There are people the president can call on for that, including outside economists, including Joe Stiglitz… including myself,” Krugman tells Bill. “What the president needs right now is a hard-nosed negotiator. And rumor has it that’s what he’s got.”
