There are few arguments for taxpayers kicking in millions of dollars to build a football stadium which will be owned by a billionaire, and in which millionaires play 15 or fewer games a year. But there are a few which, ironically enough, appeal to taxpayers who in most [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[David Strom, policy fellow, had an opinion piece in the Star Tribune this weekend, " Republicans Play Hardball Because They See the Light".   

Sadly, not even David Strom can make us smile. There is no humour here unless it is gallows humour. Please read the entire article (here are a few teasers.)  

"The crisis is not that we are having a hard time lifting the debt ceiling. The crisis is that we have to raise it by $2.4 trillion just to pay our bills through 2012." ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Great News: David Strom is back as a policy fellow with the Minnesota Free Market Institute. Here is some vintage David Strom humour and wisdom on the reaction of most Minnesotans to the Shutdown (the Wall Street Journal has set up a pay wall; out of respect for the WSJ's right to charge for excellent content while being frugal non-profit, we will work on a link to the entire article): Minnesotans Shrug Off the Shutdown: The unavailability of beer, cigarettes and fishing licenses seemed to annoy them the most.

		<description><![CDATA[Over the past few months we’ve seen the most extensive government intervention in the economy since the 1930’s. In fact, today’s interventions sometimes make those of Franklin Roosevelt look tame by comparison. Depending upon how you calculate the numbers—and that is made particularly difficult because neither the Federal Reserve or the Treasury is being particularly [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The new conventional wisdom is that investments in “green” technologies will somehow jumpstart the sputtering American economy. President-elect Obama is promising to invest heavily in “green-collar” jobs. Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty has proposed an expansion of his Job-z enterprise zones program to include “green” projects. The assumption is that the recipe for success in today’s [...]]]></description>

Revenues go down for obvious reasons. Wages, corporate profits, and sales all go down, and with them the taxes the government collects on them. And spending goes up because the [...]]]></description>
