The Brownback Tax Cut Experiment in Kansas has finally come to an end. Not because Governor Brownback realized the tax cut and “Trickle Down” policies of the GOP are wrong. No, he still believes everything is just fine in Kansas. However, after five long years for the citizens of Kansas, the Republican super-majority in the state legislature has come to see the error of their ways.
The Kansas Republicans have just discovered what people of reason have known since Reagan first sold the American people his “Trickle Down” snake oil, that phony numbers and lies eventually bring the economy crashing down.
Republican State Senator Jim Dennings spoke in favor of ending the Brownback Tax Cut Experiment. Dennings admitted the experiment was a mistake and did not deny his part in it. He added it was now time for Republicans to clean up their mess.
It is a rarity, like finding a hen’s tooth, that Republicans will take the blame for their own mistake(s), and an admission that a system of tax cuts for the very rich was a mistake, is absolutely unheard of from the GOP.
Of course, Republican lawmakers in the remaining 49 states and in the U.S. congress will maintain repeated tax cuts for the fat cats is the only method to stimulate economic growth. They will reiterate this claim over and over, even though there are countless volumes of evidence from the last four decades that prove the exact opposite is true.
The conservative belief in “Trickle Down” will never die until the top 0.1% possess every penny, every piece of land, and own every business. The conservatives must see the 99.9% living in the streets and wearing rags before they begin to question the validity of the “prosperity-for-all” promised by Reagan’s “Trickle Down” snake oil.
For the people of Kansas, this realization by their Republican legislature’s super-majority is only a momentary political hiccup. Republicans cannot fight their nature to protect the fat cats, despite any claims to the contrary. The Brownback Tax Cut Experiment will soon be back underway, only the name will change. And as expected, the usual segments of the population will be forced to tighten their belts...again,...and again,...and again...
