quick riff on republican 'economics'

0 comments | Thursday, November 22, 2007

Trickle-down doesn't work, it is a lie to justify tax cuts (cycling wealth upward). Capitalism naturally has booms and busts. There are countries with heavily regulated and taxed economies that thrive.

As for the deficit, the borrow and spend Republicans is an accurate characterization.
