Good for Jon Stewart to see the insanity in Paul Krugman's $1 trillion magic coin idea.

As we've written, the idea is terrible economics and terrible politics, but that's par for the course with Krugman.
Can't you just picture a scene in the movie "Idiocracy" where President Camacho fires his automatic rifle into the sky and announces "I have a new plan that's going to fix everything! We're going to mint up some $1 trillion coins and that's going to fix EVERYTHING!"
