Tax Cuts = \"Quack Medicine\"

If anyone at the Post’s op-ed page can be counted on to be fair, it is Ruth Marcus. So, her article today on the ridiculous way Republicans support lower taxes no matter what the economic circumstances is a must-read. The takeaway line: “The economic and fiscal circumstances may change, but the prescription remains the same. And the patient is too ill to tolerate another dose of this quack medicine.” I will be opining on the topic tomorrow.
