[mEDITate-OR:
forget how far wrong the Far Right really is...
My NYT comment about Casey, the Faux economist:
Once again Casey greased the ball he is pitching to U.S. On 1st read it did appear that, finally, The Case was getting it right. Then we read the comments, too. Which show all of U.S. that he is still being The Bad Case.

This other comment is illustrative:
The share of total after tax income (including all categories of taxation)
going to the lower three household income quintiles (<$75,000)
declined by 2.2% between 2001 and 2007
the share of total after tax income going to the upper 1% of households
increased 4.5% between 2001 and 2007

As a former R AG in a state of WA was reported, and then admitted, to have said: "Do not tell me what IS true..., tell me what people like me want to THINK is true. That is my only reality."
Another gross example of Faux news in our Times
