In light of GOP criticism of the Buffet Rule, Timothy Noah writes:
“Back in 1981 Republicans might not have liked a proposal to tax millionaires to at least the same extent that we tax mere mortals, but they would have been reluctant to oppose it on the grounds that our economy depends entirely on rich people maximizing their incomes. You could believe that, but you couldn’t say it out loud. This inhibition no longer burdens the GOP.”
With millions of people still out of work, why has the GOP been able to rally support behind supply side, or “trickle-down,” economics so easily?
