The New GOP Myth: Dynamic Scoring | National Catholic Reporter

The New GOP Myth: Dynamic Scoring | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: Dynamic scoring is not new, by any means.  It has been a GOP goal to justify tax cuts in just this way, largely because their impact on the deficit is horrible in the short term (and I don't need Pete Peterson's funded budget watch dog to tell me that).  Of course, should the Joint Tax Committee find a way to score these cuts in a way that says deficits are the only way tax cuts can lead to growth - the GOP may abandon this after going into a hissy fit.  Note that I gave JTC such an analysis a few years ago and that they were looking at it.  I hope they found something they can use.
