Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Save the World


The NY Times has allowed you to play Alan Simpson, but without the stale smell of Ben-Gay and maraschino cherries.

Go here and balance the budget.  I got us to a surplus in 2015 of $133B by slashing defense spending and increasing taxes on the rich.  In other words, by doing the exact opposite of what the GOP will try and do.

Have at it!
