I must intervene here and clarify: two of the three main editors at AT are NOT YOUNG KIDS at all. One is kind of young. The editor who nixes some stuff that should be published (IMO) is NOT the young one normally. The kids you refer to are mostly in charge of the technical end, not the content end.
Well, it isn’t that the writing is poor. I have had nearly 100 articles published at American Thinker. It isn’t that I can’t write or write appropriately.
The problem is that the editors at American Thinker DON’T UNDERSTAND what experts are saying in submitted articles.
Why not just write articles yourselves? Because you want expertise from outside.
Then you don’t LISTEN to the expertise offered — with no compensation — by experts who submit columns.
If you don’t understand that the accelerated depreciation rules for equipment, tools, vehicles, and such are a massive, monstrous burden on business and that eliminating those rules would unleash a nationwide shopping spree by business.....
.... listen to those who DO understand it.
There is no single thing that the GOP Congress could do that would put as many millions of people to work.
And being very simple, it would be much more likely to succeed than actions which would require multiple intermediate steps, so the effect might be uncertain.
If someone brings to American Thinker things that you don’t know, ISN’T THAT WHAT YOU WANT?
If the only thing you have is what you already know in the inner circle of a publication, then your knowledge base is limited.
If people bring you information and expertise you don’t have — and again, for free — shouldn’t that be what you are TRYING to achieve?
But if you are limited only by what you personally understand, then you won’t get very far.
Ronald Reagan’s tax changes created the largest economic boom in American history.
That’s not big enough for you?
People give you their expertise — for free — using their time and effort, and then have their expertise dissed by people who don’t know anything about the topic.
