Americans are ready for a message of economic growth, but who will deliver it?
Someone said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste." Why are the Republicans wasting it?
If the Democrats are willing to bet the entire U.S. economy on a 1931 theory known as the Keynesian multiplier, surely Republicans can excavate and relearn the core idea handed down to them by Ronald Reagan. That idea was known as economic growth.
Freed to choose between these two competing ideas, I'm guessing many voters would go for growth. All that's needed is just one Republican who can explain this idea halfway as well as Ronald Reagan.
Arguably at no time in their lives have more Americans been this sharply focused on the economy. They think and talk about nothing else. The Republicans have been handed on a tarnished silver platter the chance to offer the American people an alternative vision of how their economy works -- and grows.
They should take political ownership of the 75% of the U.S. economy that the Democrats have abandoned -- the private economy.
This is a good article.
