There’s no separating politics and economics — thank goodness for NRO Financial.

As a professional investor who understands the link between politics and economics, I can tell you that National Review Online is the best place on the web to get the inside track on the economy and the markets. Powerhouse NRO Financial writers like Larry Kudlow, Bruce Bartlett, and Steve Moore take you inside today’s politics before it becomes tomorrow’s economic policy. And with my own Krugman Truth Squad, I’m confident you can lock and load all the intellectual ammo you need to fight off the Left’s economic lies.

NRO Financial writers can also help you understand the economy better — which is always a plus if you’re in a political argument, but is also critical if you hope to make smart investment decisions. Where else but NRO Financial can you get institutional-strength insights from experts like David Malpass at Bear Stearns and Victor Canto at La Jolla Economics, people who know yield curves, incentive effects, and Washington like the backs of their hands?

Make no mistake about it: The writers on NRO Financial will put you on a level playing field with Wall Street’s biggest professional investors.

But as that great conservative economist Milton Friedman says, “There’s no such thing as a free lunch.” He’s right! So if you love NRO’s great economics coverage, now’s the time to slide out your credit card and show your support by donating to the site or subscribing to National Review.

Can you think of a better economics lesson for Paul Krugman?
