The Grand Tea Party Experiment starts today! Yipeee!
And now, we test Tea Party economics: Will depressing aggregate demand for goods and services stimulate the economy and help the supply side? We'll see.

But my guess is that the rules of supply and demand have not changed all that much in the past few years.

1. Are you assuming the tea party is able to learn from experience? They are not.
In my mind they are just like addicts who are using. Doing the same insane thing over and over and not connecting the dots as to why the result is bad every time.

It doesn't matter that this will fail.

In fact I expect most teabaggers are, like my father, hateful people who just want to see the world burn. Who want absolute destruction of everything.

2. Agreed on teabaggers, they are unteachable. Hopefully voters are.

3. No doubt that we'll see, once again
why Supply and Demand is a LAW, and "Trickle Down" is a THEORY.

4. Hey Dad
that'd make a great bumper sticker.

Supply and Demand is a LAW, and "Trickle Down" is a THEORY

Bumper stickers are the only thing some people understand.
