Some folks are just plain SMARTER than all those economists don't cha know???

You mean all those economist paid for by AFFT? I don't put much weight into opinions of economists who were paid to come to particular conclusions.

Yeah! Those and the hundres of others who have signed on simply becuse it is such a GREAT idea!

Far a VERY long time now it has been abundantly clear to me that the only thing you put much weight into is what's in it for me?.

You think William Gale, Bruce Bartlett, and the President's Tax Panel weren't paid??? Guess that makes their work questionable, too - and they don't even show their work like Kotlikoff et al do so that it can be adequately reviewed.

They just state things and expect to be believed since they represent "the government". Sorry, but I like to see the work and reasoning involved. Do you have any???
