Brad DeLong: "It is not that they {the Pain Caucus economists} or their funders have any material interest in prolonged depression. It is no longer the case that there are many rich people who hold their wealth in bonds and so profit from deflation and do not lose from unemployment and idle capacity: Everybody's portfolio today is much more diversified than that. Today, in a depression everybody loses."
