The Banker’s Problem

The problem with bankers is that they think with their checkbook, and they think everyone does. This results in their belief that more money means more brains. Oh silly babbit, silly silly thoughtless babbit.

Cutting Tax

Tax cuts work. They raise revenue, at least of some. Those that argue that tax cuts raise the US (or any other) economy are correct, or at least we should pretend they are. Next time you are asked about tax cuts, say you are in favor. In fact begin advocating that tax cuts should be given to every man woman and child in the US (or any other country). This time, begin at the bottom of the tax ladder. Reduce taxes beginning with the lowest tax rate, lowering it to zero. If the economy doesn’t revive or achieve, then move up a ladder, lowering the taxes, again to zero if necessary. Continue this until we have achieved the necessary growth, or the theorists have shut up, or cried out that that isn’t what they meant. Of course it is what they meant, just not whom they meant.
