I could start this blog with a long winded declaration of what Paul Krugman has done, but I assume that most people have at least heard the rhetoric that he spews. For the longest time, I have heard that the Nobel Prize in all of its forms is a prize that shows the accomplishments of those who are the leaders of their fields. If you have some great advance, and your field is fitting, you will receive the Nobel Prize for what you have done. Today a regressive individual was awarded a progressive prize. As opposed to giving the prize to someone with an original, forward thinking positive thought, the prize has been awarded to the exact opposite. Krugman twice weekly writes about his views on the economy, but more so on his thoughts of the world and the United States at large. He wins a prize today for economics, when he has made no great contributions to the field in any persons recent memory. Paul Krugman has done a great deal to advance the liberal agenda to like minded and non-thinking individuals who swarm to the propaganda like moths to a light. I have seldom been as disappointed in something I truly believed in as I am today in the board that awards excellence in my profession/hobby. I hope that the field as a whole does not continue in the direction that Krugman hopes to take it during the seldom times that he decides to actually write about economics. The awardance of this prize just further proves the lack of a need for the prize in the first place, because it does nothing to advance the world as a whole, nor the economy. I am depressed, sad and completely disappointed with the Nobel Prize commitee and will no longer place any emphasis on what they say or who they award.
