gridlock gets bad rap
Them doin nuffin ain't necessarily the worst they could do - economist Tom Sowell EDITORIAL
By Peter Samuel on April 10, 2012Thomas Sowell the famous Hoover Institution economist in a column today says that gridlock in Washington DC gets a bad rap. He asks rhetorically: "Have you noticed that what modest economic improvements we have seen occurred during the much-lamented 'gridlock' in Washington? Nor is this unusual. If you check back through history, doing nothing has a far better track record than that of politicians intervening in the economy."
