I seem to remember csl adopting this line about tax cuts and deficits.

Be patient. The tax cuts will reduce deficits eventually. That's true. If you destroy the economy, there's no economy to borrow against.

But that doesn't make it desirable.

What we are actually seeing is what Dems have said all along. The GoP rewards the wealthy and damages the poor at any price. If that means deficits, no problem.

This has to be George Will's greatest piece on trade. Worth reading the whole article.

"To those who say that this is as plausible as trying to produce prosperity with protectionism -- correctly likened to pursuing wealth by blockading one's own ports -- today's trade warriors respond: Have patience. Given sufficient time, protectionism will pay.

But as the comedian Steven Wright says, everywhere is walking distance if you have the time."
