Paul Krugman (left) and Ben Bernanke (right) have many things in common besides their wisdom whiskers. They have both been chairmen of Princeton University’s Department of Economics. Paul Krugman is the current chairman and often writes for the NY Times. Ben Bernanke was appointed chairmen of the Federal Reserve under Bush and Obama has kept him. Both men are proponents of easy credit and stimulus packages to pull the economy out of recession. They have even suggested dropping money from helicopters. No joke.
