Re: Brownback Tax Cuts a bust...Kansas State Legislature now fixing to repeal
That "forced spending cuts" part IS working in Kansas. Predictably, the only citizens who like the results are the Koch brothers and ALEC flunkies who live there. What Brownback promised was that businesses would flock there to take advantage of their little utopia and everyone would win. If anything, the opposite is happening. Now ALEC is writing apologetics claiming that their policies are having a hard time working in KS because is has a one dimensional economy. :doh

The right realized that they cannot really adopt an explicit "let people starve to death" policy, but they needed to retain the goal of stealing from the poor to give to the rich, so they approached it from a budgetary standpoint by using tax cuts and their resulting deficits to force spending cuts.
