Keynesians / Liberals – Relent
Cash for clunkers didn’t work. Neither did much of the stimulus. OK? Game over. PS. This is economics, not politics (so says I).
“Bush Tax Cuts Had Little Positive Impact on Economy”
Commentary by Bruce Bartlett. He suggests that we look at the items in those tax packages, keep the ones that can be shown to have had an effect, and jettison the rest. Sound like sound policy implementation to me. The Palinite / Tea Party conservatives will trash this idea and dismiss Bartlett as a traitor […]
Tax Cuts Don’t Work To Fix The Economy…. Uhm……
Ann Althouse has noticed that the proposed amount of Obama latest stimulus package, $50 billion, is half the amount of the tax breaks being offered by the Democrat.

Hey San Fracisco…
Ha Ha, Your Government Is Stupid!!!!!! Just a friendly response to the strangeness that has become the San Francisco nanny-state way of life.

And, […]

Emission Reductions – How WIll We Meet The New Targets?
OK, I’ll provide a few details, such as they are: According to people briefed by the senators, the bill aims to cut carbon emissions from 2005 levels by 17 per cent by 2020 and 80 per cent by 2050, largely by implementing separate caps on utilities and manufacturers.

Just When You Think You’ve Been Taxed Enough….
Flush with the success of taxing Americans blind via the health care bureaucratic expansion bill, a”New” Climate Change / Energy bill is on its way. From the Financial Times: Three senior US lawmakers are piecing together a sweeping bipartisan energy and climate bill, which looks set to include sweeteners to galvanise support among Republicans and […]
A Quick Note On Health Care Reform Or, Why You Shouldn’t Love This Bomb.
I was writing another post concerning the current health care reform bill, but got distracted by the news of the leaked preliminary CBO analysis, and figured I might as well combine the two posts and deem it one. The CBO projects this legislation will save the federal government $130 over the first decade, and $1.2 […]
