policial foo: Nordlinger
Apr. 15th, 2010 07:51 amI enjoy Nordlinger's Impromptus... a sort of rambling essay on topics on his mind, published every few days. Today included a bit about Tax Day..
I think I’ve told you this in Impromptus before: Bill Buckley and I used to share a complaint about the tax code, and this is the way we would put it, when complaining together: The tax code pits Americans against one another. It pits homeowners against renters, married people against unmarried people, people with children against people without children, people with children going to college against people with children going into trades -- and on and on. The tax code is packed with social policy, and bias. That’s one reason I say, a pox on it.
Click here if you want to read the rest, including musings on the Israeli Philharmonic, Cuba, and conservatives who stand out.
