The elitists illuminati should tax their Ivy-League alliances as well. We shouldn't buy into the socialism at all! No one should be exempt.

From literature, to peace, to economics to...(fill in the blank)...I imagine that ole Alfred might be rolling over in his grave at much of that which is being celebrated/elevated in his name.

I would support the Krugman Tax. Lets make it retroactive so Al Gore can surrender his bogus award from a few years ago. At very least, give it to the scientists that actually did his work for him.

Who is there to respect these 'world' organisational bodies anymore other than the world's greediest, most corrupt, shallowest worst of the worst? - that should be the only prize these grafters are qualified to give out.

Next year his prize money would have made him part of the 5% of Americans whose wealth needs to be spread around, to help the people "behind" him.

It normally takes 20-30 years to be recognized by the Nobel Prize comittee. It’s normal that the work for which Krugman was awarded the Nobel Prize was 30 years ago.
