Hate mail is comin in strong and rancid over this story. Guess I underestimated how many stans there are for Art Laffer, the trickle-down economist who says lowering taxes raises tax revenue.

This one from Arthur Laffer fanboy Mike Villano is probably my favorite (so far). Imagine getting this worked up defending an economic consultant

the others are too long to read or post. please, if you send me hate mail, I'm gonna need it to be less than 100 words, otherwise it's going in the bin. I don't have time to read your novel for free, but I do offer my consulting services through the literary platform The Black List. More info here:

Set up an auto-reply that says “Government spending also raises tax revenue then I guess. Future emails from your address will be filtered into my trash folder”

ALEC - the GOP source for all bills for State Legislatures comes up with this stuff. I don't think have the GOP members are smart enough to come up their shitty legislation on their own, ESPECIALLY in NC.
