If we can take his track record for predicting technology, I think its safe to say we are in pretty good shape.

Krugman is a fool, not to mention a bigot. I'm glad to see that such is provable through his past statements (not that I can't excuse a rouge mistake if that's all this is, but I don't think so).

The same guy who advocates for hyperinflation has no standing on the Bitcoin issue.
