I Write Letters

Published in the Sun-Times today, in response to analysis from know-nothing business columnist Terry Savage claiming that maintaining tax cuts for the millionaires among us is the right thing to do–and willl really stimulate the economy this time!

I would have liked to elaborate more, but sadly they have their print letters at two paragraphs max these days. Gotta save room for the syndicated columnists.

Savage wrong on tax cuts
Does Terry Savage really think maintaining Bush-era tax cuts for the richest Americans is going to boost the economy? We’ve heard that same story for 10 years now and it hasn’t panned out. Better to return top tax rates to what they were during the Clinton years (Remember? When people had jobs?) and start paying down our deficit.
