Supply Side Economics: Boon or Bane?


Supply Side Economics: Boon or Bane?

Postby Brig » Aug 5, 2004 @ 2:54am

Commonly attributed to the GOP, supply side economics is widely considered bunk, or perhaps even seven forms of donkey ass (haha). Bush, between crayon-eating and naptime, has expressed his love for "supple sade ego mix" [sic].
http://www.responsiblegov.net/Supply%20 ... nomics.htm

"Opposing the supply side theories are almost every economist and policy analyst not on the payroll of a right-wing think tank. Among those who acknowledge that the current wave of Bush tax cuts will result in massive deficits are Robert Reischauer, former Congressional Budget Office director and now president of the Urban Institute; Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan; economists with the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, the Congressional Budget Office, the Tax Policy Center, the Brookings Institution, the Economic Policy Institute and many other think tanks; plus 450 economists including ten Nobel prize winners."

Discuss.
Truth is a possession.

Organic Superlube? Oh, it's great stuff, great stuff. You really have to keep an eye on it, though--it'll try and slide away from you the first chance it gets.
