A mistake made again and again


So it seems that the Republicans in Washington are going to cut taxes.

When we don't need to cut taxes.  As I noted in a previous post, according to esteemed Washington Post's economics writer Robert Samuelson, we need to raise taxes right now.

But good arguments are lost on Republicans.  So I have another argument.

First, let's look at the article.

White House plans for tax cuts moves forward

A quote from the article:
"... there is a growing willingness within the GOP to embrace controversial, optimistic estimates of how much economic growth their tax plan would create."
So, you read that, and then one single name should send shudders through anyone who is both conscious and capable of lucid thought processes:

Kansas.

And if that is not a good enough argument, another name should clinch it.

Sam Brownback.

There, I'm done, and nothing can beat that argument.

Except rank stupidity.

Which the Republicans possess in large quantities.
