A KISS to the Economy

David Brooks has an op-ed that offers a fairly simple, and non-partisan plan for re-invigorating the economy. But his most salient point is that what he suggests is nothing new, simply what we as a nation have done since our founding in a variety of ways whenever we fall into an economic depression following an irrational boom. Interesting reading, but sadly, in our current political climate these ideas would never get consideration beyond one day's exposure in the NYT or blogs like this which exist in oblivion.
