i love this cartoon:
Especially in light of McCain's latest attack ad on Obama. He draws some pretty silly conclusions - Higher Taxes, More Government - means Fewer Jobs. I seem to remember that the New Deal started off with a few of those things, but ended up providing *more* jobs. Of course, that's only relevant if you believe that Obama is going to do those things.
Republican economic policy has been a failure for over thirty years. There's no reason to believe that it will work now. Time to move away from these failed policies (oh.. how much better off are we now that we all got those "rebate checks?") and find some real solutions.
