New York Times columnist Eduardo Porter writes today, "Last year the government spent almost $40 billion on Pell grants, more than twice as much as when President Obama came to office."
Someone should get word of this to Paul Krugman, who wrote on March 29 that America has "slashed the aid that used to make college affordable for children of less-affluent families."
Professor Krugman's credibility is at the level that not even the other left-leaning Times columnists find his account a reliable guide to reality.
