Obama Should Speak "Krugman"

Here's Paul Krugman's straight talk about the obscene behavior of the rich. Obama should make this speech to the country. Call it like he sees it, that is if he sees it this way. He won't make this speech because it would be political suicide; but he should, and thereby take his place in the pantheon of the great leaders. So far he's been just another politician.

Leanderthal,

This is a good column. It should be more widely read.
Here is a link to an article in the New Yorker. I think it fits nicely with the Krugman Column. It reveals how some Americans are being manipulated by a really rich family corporation, (and don't even know it).
