In light of the way we actually got out of the Great Depression, it’s instructive — and depressing — to look at polling from that era. Two results from Gallup, in March 1938:

    Do you think government spending should be increased to help get business out of its present slump?
    Gallup Poll, Mar, 1938

    37% Yes

    63% No

    In your opinion which will do more to get us out of the depression: increase government spending, or reduce taxes on business?
    Gallup Poll (AIPO), Mar, 1938

    15% Increase government spending

    63% Reduce taxes on business

    21% No opinion

Krugman is the biggest hack of them all. 

Danny - face it - your liberal experiment failed miserably.  November 2010 - its all over.  The fools like Krugman go back to their rightful place of screaming from the sidelines.
