Description of Pictures: When End This Depression Now! was published in April 2012, it changed the national debate. New York Times columnist and Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman reminded us that we had forgotten John Maynard Keynes's central dictum: “The boom, not the slump, is the time for austerity.”
Krugman has been writing about the pain of the unemployed and the need for government spending both in his column and his blog, but this book makes his arguments irrefutable by presenting a full, convincing case all in one place. As Krugman points out, we have seen this situation before and we know how to fix it.
What we need for a powerful recovery is precisely what we've needed in crises past – a burst of government spending to jump-start the economy. Krugman convinces us that we owe it not only to the unemployed, but to everyone affected by this tragedy to find the “intellectual clarity and political will” to end this depression now.
Partially Reviewed: Rough draft. I've gone through these pictures once, removing the worst ones, some duplication, etc. I usually take sequences of 4 or 5 pictures at a time and there are lots of near duplicates. I'll be doing a final review later.
Recognize anyone? If you recognize specific people (or other things) in the pictures which I haven't labeled, please identify them for the world. Or fill in any other descriptions you can. Click the little pencil icon underneath the file name (just above the picture). Spammers need not apply.

Help? The 0640x0480 links are for screen viewing and emailing. The 2048x1536 (older ones may be different sizes than this) links are mostly for downloading and printing (they can be used to do reasonable-quality prints up to about 8x10). [Click here for additional help]

Missing Some Bigger photos? Each new digital camera by default wants to take larger and larger photos. To save myself time and server space, I don't upload to the web site versons of photos that are bigger than 2.75 megabytes to the web page. If you want the biggest sized photo and you don't see a link bigger than 0640x0480, email Bruce Guthrie and I'll email specific photos to you.
