LCD Politics *


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The most common political position, from the local through the national level of “governance” in my country, boils down to one thing. Reduce taxes. This underwhelming vision endemic to the incurious reminds me of the following story.

A man walks into a bank to see about getting a loan to start a business. He sits down with the loan officer, who asks to see his business plan. The man says, well, my plan is simple. I want to keep my costs down. The loan officer stands up and says, well that is easy, don’t start a business.

* LCD = “Lowest Common Denominator”
