Paul Krugman who looks so ominously out of his picture in The Hindu(his eyes remind me of a person in trance), normally throws all his economics jargon at me,but has become more of a philosophical kind at least in the yesterday's newspaper . Thanks to the "who will bell the Greece?" game going around in Europe or I would say the world. Everyone is interested in the game but no one wants to actually win the game. Shirking the responsibility has taken a new name "memebers of Eurozone". Everyone is scared of 1931 but no one wants to actually learn from their Great grandfathers. Paul Krugman really impressed me not because he wrote something extraordinary but because it was lucid and ordinary for a laywoman like me to understand. I am really thankful to him to help me boost my ego and self-confidence, for i too will dare in future to read his column again rather than just staring back at those generously big eyes. He also draws parallel in Fed Reserve's inability to gesticulate and actually do something because everyone believes "ki yeh mera kaam nahin hai- very typical Indian PSU attitude". The unemployement figures in USA are soaring as high above as Michelle Obama(refrencing to her tallness). At the end what i understand is that Economics is nothing more than a game of knowledge coupled with decision. The absence of any of the two concepts can lead to another Greece. So are you ready to bell the cat....er Greece....
My knowledge about Paul Krugman is very sub-atomic so incase you wish to enlighten yourself go ahead and enjoy the link below........may be he inspires you....
