Sr. Fellow @ManhattanInst
Sen. Portman chief economist (2011-17), DC think tanker (2001-11), budget policy for 4 prez campaigns. Independent. Tweets mine.🏳️🌈
When an economist opens their mouth, everyone should be legally required to scream at them until they shut up. An endless chorus of screams like a Ligeti composition which only grows as more people hear it.
It should be physically loud enough that it's like diving with sperm whales. All of society coming together for a psychic attack strong enough to rupture organs.
That people like this have any influence in DC should be a sign to baby leftists that reforming from the inside is damn near impossible when even the outer circles of Washington are full of people like this.
