“What you really should want to do is to soak the rich as much as possible,” Krugman said in an appearance on HuffPost Live Wednesday afternoon. “So the top tax rates should be whatever it is that collects the most revenue, and now the question is, how high is that?”

In other Krugman news, Paul Krugman writes the following in a recent NYT column of his:

Go figure.
