This is mainly for Clyde, as he keeps repeating Trump's claim that the Christopher Steele dossier is bogus.

Reuters - Trump 'dossier' author grilled by Justice Department watchdogs: sources

In that same month, Attorney General William Barr, who now heads the Justice Department, told a congressional committee that the Horowitz probe would be completed by May or June.

One of the two sources said Horowitz’s investigators appear to have found Steele’s information sufficiently credible to have to extend the investigation. Its completion date is now unclear.


Well ... he ... says ... a lot of stuff.
Capitalize on this good fortune, one word can bring you round ... changes.

Laffernomics

It all began in 1974, when Laffer walked into a bar with Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld, who were working for the Ford administration at the time. Out of it came the “Laffer curve,” a U-shaped graph illustrating the relationship between tax rates and revenue.
The Laffer curve has done immense damage to the US economy in the 40 years since its inception. It also ignores a fundamental reality: tax cuts for the rich don’t work.
Each and every time state or federal governments have tested Laffer’s trickle-down theory, deficits balloon, rich folks hoard their wealth at the top, and average Americans suffer.

It all just goes to show those of us with half a clue just how incompetent, inept, insecure and corrupt v2.0 is while showing he certainly doesn't have a clue about economics at all.

About the only thing he does know is how to be a bully.

He knows how to read balance sheets knowing the differences between red and black figures though.
However it seems like he doesn't know why the figures are like that.
Meanwhile the US national debt is soaring...

Well it's only the US tax payers money at stake so what.

Oh... When the US economy collapse what happen to the world economy?

Love it. Ignorance is a virtue in some countries:)
THERE ARE NO NOBEL PRIZES IN ECONOMICS!!!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Memorial_Prize_in_Economic_Sciences
The prize was established in 1968 by a donation from Sweden's central bank, the Sveriges Riksbank to the Nobel Foundation to commemorate the bank's 300th anniversary.[3][7][8][9] As it is not one of the prizes that Alfred Nobel established in his will in 1895, it is not a Nobel Prize.
But since the Genius is from Karlstad in Värmland. Why not. LOL again:)

I tried to find out a lot of information about the Laffer Curve just a few years ago. I seem to recall reading posts at The Heritage Foundation and the Cato Institute, for example. To the best of my recollection and to the best I could tell, the Laffer curve was developed based on "the way things we think they ought to be" rather than statistical analysis of existing data.

Last time the economy was in this shape tricky dick was in the WH. Then the stagflation set in and Ford came in. The result was Carter.

Actually it have some merits.
But it totally ignore the fact that tax payers have different incitements not to pay tax depending how wealthy you are.

Sarge and Moomin, the Laffer curve totally denies the concept of diminishing marginal utility. It is voodoo economics. That is not just my opinion but the vast majority of economists.

LOL:) It was George H. W. Bush who coined the term "voodoo economics".
Well here we are and the one percenters are laughing all the way to the bank.
Still waiting for the trickle down effect:)

The trickle down effect won't happen while 99% of rich people just want to see their names climb upwards on the rich list and that's just another uncomfortable fact for some. ;-)
