Luminaries at their best

Americans are feeling uneasy for reasons that are hard to pin down,” quipped economist #PaulKrugman in a New York Times interview published earlier this week.

Reasons that are hard to pin down?

Bear in mind that this man received a #NobelPrize— our society’s most prominent award for intellectual achievement. Yet he doesn’t have the foggiest idea why his fellow citizens may be feeling uneasy.

Perhaps it’s the ever-lurking prospect of escalated #warfare. Or the exasperation over dysfunctional #government, #weaponization of the #justice system, and manipulative #media. Or the invasion of millions of #migrants streaming across the southern border, virtually unchecked.

Granted those issues may be outside of Krugman’s wheelhouse. But you’d think that he would at least understand people’s unease over #inflation.
