When Paul Krugman isn’t busy trying to pretend that year three of the worst inflationary crisis in 40 years is merely transitory, the once-esteemed Nobel laureate is trying to justify said inflation with the supposed sole benefits of “Bidenomics“: Namely, we’ve achieved the white whale of full employment while shrinking income inequality.
There’s just one problem.
