Hold On To Your Asses For "Dynamic Scoring"
August 1, 2017 at 1:11 pm
Paul Ryan's latest magic act for his tax cut plan.

https://www.taxjustice.net/2015/01/08/dy...ight-hand/

Quote:n the words of Bruce Bartlett, an economist in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administration:
Quote:“Republicans want to use dynamic scoring only for tax cuts. . . They refuse to acknowledge that spending, such as public works spending, also has dynamic effects. They should either do it for spending and taxes or not at all.”
In short, dynamic scoring is an out-and-out nonsense, and a crowbar for the worst kind of economic tomfoolery.
Will any of this cold shower stop the shills, lobbyists and tax-cutting politicians?
Of course not! You just select the radical model you want, feed in just the right assumptions, plug it into your dynamic scoring machine, and Hey Presto! A tax-cutting balanced budget!

Real world examples exist.

Quote:Kansas Legislators offer a warning to Trump administration about dynamic scoring

Do not expect the WLB and his gang of scumbags to give a flying fuck what harm they do.

I prefer dynamic tension. Especially when referencing asses.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.

If Dems came up with snappy, easy-to-remember (bonus points for rhyming or alliteration) meaningless horse shit catch phrases like the Republicans do -
"dynamic scoring"
"repeal and replace"
"mainstream media"
"job creators"
"fiscal cliff"

- I swear they'd win a lot more elections.

Dem voters tend to be much smarter than the redneck fucktards.  You can't get away with catchy slogans that don't mean shit.

Yabut, I didn't have a TV (by choice) and was working for a living. "Rocky Horror Picture Show", I might have seen, but this doesn't look what I recall it to be like. Didn't watch many movies, either.
