Scott Sumner on Paul Krugman

Feb 20, 2015 | THE ECONOMY

“Paul Krugman was the one that said 2013 was a test of market monetarism.  He’s the one who said it was a test of whether monetary policy could offset the drag of fiscal stimulus.  And now the results are in. And what is Krugman’s response? I can’t quite tell, but it almost seems to me that he’s denying that any test took place.”
