Conservative. Republican. Wanting to finish the Reagan Revolution. Let's discuss how we do that.

For monetary fabulists like Michael Hiltzik to continue to promote fiction that gold-defined dollar caused 30s, is for them to bring new meaning to trite. Tying gold to 30s is like #KimJongUn blaming his height on the foot. https://t.co/BW9i3uJmrk

The problem isn't that we hate each other. The problem is we FEAR each other. But love casts out fear.

I'm a newly come admirer of @arthurbrooks. He's a voice we need in our politics. Check out our conversation below:

Members of the right rightly reject MMT out of one side of the mouth, but out of the other say essentially the same thing with their use of the impossibility that is "easy money" to explain econ. growth, rising stock markets, companies going public, etc. https://t.co/nZSP9y6Lcm

The citizens of Houston did not vote to layoff Firefighters, but to pay them fairly. #onetermturner has just confirmed we will@have a new Mayor in 2020. Every official (and candidate) who is part of the Turner machine are on notice. We will defeat you! @FirefightersHOU

With local businesses hiring/competing to keep good workers, personal income will continue to grow in 2019, perhaps in the 3% growth range.

That's good news.

Only intervention by those with limited knowledge of workings of mkts. can cause a "crisis." 2008 wasn't financial, it was consequence of intervention. Samuelson thinks Moore incapable of handling crises, but absent interventions he cheers, there are none. https://t.co/qq2gArrryA

The accepted view on both sides that the rich should shoulder a major portion of the total tax burden is an impoverishing one, and it's one that means there are fewer revival stories like Asbury Park's. https://t.co/M8mPfcn1qz

"If you actually want to persuade somebody else, attacking that other person will drive that person farther in the other direction and it will alienate the people who are listening to your interchange ... " says social scientist Arthur Brooks. https://t.co/jne19cN7qR

Monetarism is Phillips Curve turned inside out. Both religions believe growth causes inflation; their disagreement about what incites it. Missed by both, along with all-too-many supply siders, is that money is where production is.#Fed can't alter reality. https://t.co/gZ8kFxPrIt

[Steve Inskeep @NPRinskeep]

How do you argue sensibly with people you feel are profoundly wrong? @arthurbrooks wants better public debate, yet dismisses terms like "civility" and "tolerance" as "garbage standards." On @MorningEdition, he offers a prescription for less garbage. @npr

If the current city council members who plan on running for re-election in 2019, or for another office in 2020, think we aren't paying very close attention to this whole mess, they would be wrong. #cityswamp #reform

If we're going to reboot American politics, @aei's @arthurbrooks tells @nickgillespie, we need to love our enemies and channel our inner libertarian. https://t.co/naatid8s7Z

@StephenMoore and I disagree about the Fed. I think it's rushing toward irrelevance, he thinks it consequential. But I'm thrilled about his nomination. #SteveMoore will disagree with econ myths about growth/inflation, plus Steve will teach them decency. https://t.co/MRtmRB3h7R

[John Tamny @johntamny]

@Bob_Landry1 So true. Deficits are the conservative and libertarian right's global warming. They relentlessly warn us about the Armageddon that awaits with recycled op-eds. They miss that that real crisis is unseen; as in the progress not taking place due to SPENDING.
