...prosperity foregone is invisible. In other words, we can never tell how much richer we would have been without today's level of congressional interference in our lives... Walter E. Williams http://townhall.com/columnists/WalterEWilliams/2009/03/18/prosperity_lost
This column should be turned into a lesson taught to all school children on what they should know about the economic principles related to taxes. Williams has written with a clarity reminiscent of Henry Hazlitt. It should also be part of an exam all would-be politicians would need to pass to get on a ballot!
