The Real "Party of No"

CARPE DIEM: Economists: The Real "Party of No"

'Economists are the real 'Party of No.'
They keep saying that there is no such thing as a free lunch — and politicians keep on getting elected by promising free lunches.
Nothing is easier for politicians than to play Santa Claus by promising benefits without mentioning the costs — or lying about the costs and leaving it to future governments to figure out what to do when the money runs out.'

~Thomas Sowell"
