 Who's wrong more often?

Paul Krugman or Jim Cramer?

 Both are wrong a lot. Cramer kinda owns his buffoonery. Krugman has that detestable smug elitist sensibility that he’s never wrong and always super serious.

 The Cramer-Krugman effect: when you're wrong like a confident cokehead.

 They each get things wrong in their own way. Paul Krugman’s entire framework for how an economy should operate is wrong, whereas Jim just chronically makes bad stock calls.
