The highest form of bumper sticker

I'm on a Jay Nordlinger kick lately. This is an email he received from a reader, who wonders about the value of dissent after the ascent of Our Brave New Leader:

"You talked about the bumper sticker that says, 'Dissent is the highest form of patriotism.' Will that still hold true, now that the One is president? I have a liberal neighbor with some bumper stickers that no longer send the message she wants. I’m watching to see if and when she removes the sticker that says, 'Visualize Impeachment,' and another saying, 'If You Can Read This, You’re Not the President.' Clearly to her, those are now outdated and should be removed. Would it be wrong to go knock on her door and ask if I could have them for my car?..."

Cut taxes!

Guess who thought cutting payroll taxes was a good idea to fight recessions?

None other than John Maynard Keynes.


Keynes also was dubious about using infrastructure projects for this purpose.

Off the scene

I've been in the hospital, which accounts for my lack of posts.

Hope to be posting again soon.
