When Paul Krugman Says All the Evidence, He Really Means Some

Paul Krugman claims that all (and he means all!) evidence shows that public healthcare systems have less bureaucracy than private systems. Peter Suderman points out this isn’t quite so, uh, true:

I love Krugman, because you know he’s uttering some convenient half-truth when he criticizes someone else for being dishonest. He’s refreshingly honest that way.
