and exactly why we are better off without gratuitous statements about what others here, in your opinion, understand or don't understand .. for any interested

Not that I really care but maybe you can explain it to Krugman.

FWIW my statement was not gratuitous. I was stating a simple fact which the IMF recognizes as well. Sorry I don't do link backs etc.

Apparently Krugman like I do think the Euro was ill conceived to begin with. Go figure.
