Heard on the Hill: Data reveal what an average professor earns at KU; former provost Richard Lariviere to head Chicago's Field Museum; incoming freshmen to read 'Notes from No Man's Land'
Surely KU has some sort of formula for determining base salary. That would be interesting to see.

Buffett rule won’t close federal deficit
Keynesianism isn't about housing bubbles. That's a silly misinterpretation. Greenspan wasn't a Keynesian, and the very next paragraph makes the comment that "Greenspan still thinks he can pull that off" making it clear that the column was analysis of the current situation and not advice urging for a bubble. The movie analogies make perfect sense when you read the last line of the piece. "And while I like movies with happy endings as much as the next guy, a movie isn't realistic unless the story line makes sense."
The whole thing is just wishful thinking on your part.

Because he stubbornly insists on misinterpreting something he said once. Also, Krugman disagrees with everything L_O stands for, so he must therefore be a "hack."

Very good. Keep it up. Next you can call him a loser who takes Ron Paul wayyyy too seriously.

We don't need music teachers. We can just listen to Brownback fiddle.

Some of what you say has a grain of truth, but most of it is the spin business wants you to believe. Manufacturing businesses play states against each other and basically get paid to build and move their factories every few years. Sure, unions are a factor, but not because the unions are always "unreasonable" or "greedy." Quite often it's actually the business displaying those attributes and would rather set up shop in places where they can suppress pay and worker safety. Our supposedly weak unions didn't keep Boeing here did it? They moved their tanker jobs to Puget Sound, which doesn't have a "right to work" law.

Excellent demonstration of projection, L_O, and for everyone else, there's Google. http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2009...

I'd like to see some of the incumbents lose, too. Unfortunately, it's not the ones he's targeting.
