yes, I am glad I live my life by what Krugman predicts.    His prediction that the impact of the internet to the global economy would be less than the fax machine was brilliant.

More of his usual "I can't figure out what backs bitcoin."  

Now after reading it, I am disappointed because he didn't really explain why he thought it was "evil."  He just made one reference to bitcoin being a tool to escape central banking and limit the government's ability to monitor its citizens' financial transactions and collect taxes.  He then said he "doesn’t like that agenda" but didn't really explain how such an agenda was "evil."
