Thanks for clicking my provocative headline. For my intro, I'd like to state my overall message: David Brooks is an idiot. Follow me to the Body.
In his latest column, Brooks criticizes the just passed health care bill.
He says about the bill: "This legislation was supposed to end that asphyxiating growth, which will crowd out investments in innovation, education and everything else. It will not."
He also says: "This bill is full of gimmicks designed to get a good score from the Congressional Budget Office but not to really balance the budget."
And then he proves he's an idiot when he says: "Nobody knows how this bill will work out."
OK, so I can ignore you when you just said how you think this bill will work out? Great, we do agree on something.
