Taking Paul Krugman seriously

Robert Higgs on Paul Krugman
Krugman obviously subscribes to the belief, immensely popular inside the beltway, that all the money rightfully belongs to the government, whether it is being considered for involuntary transfer from its private holders to the government or being considered for retention by the people who earned it in the first place. He wants anyone who proposes to allow such retention to bear a burden of benefit/cost proof.
Read the complete post here.
On assigning the burden of proof, see Anthony de Jasay on the presumption of liberty.
