Paul Krugman Rebuffed By the White House

The Death Star petition response, I mean.

Exhibit A for the next libertarian that tries to tell me this guy is actually a Keynesian.

I assume it was Krugman trying to operationalize his alien invasion idea with the initial petition.

In all seriousness, though, it makes no sense to build a massive space station when we have an Earth-sized planet with water and a roughly 24 hour day just 56,000,000 kilometers away (56,000,000 kilometers every two years at least).
