About two weeks ago, there was a thread on Krugman's Op-Ed http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=803793 in the NYT. This is a response to that op-ed by a fellow economist.

The fellow economist is a key figure in the school of economic thought that Krugman was attacking.

Of course not, it's all a point of view. It's just a critical point to know in the context of fellow economists that the Chicago school is under attack, whether rightly or wrongly, for the current state of the economy.
