Blame the Republicans, Bryan Caplan | EconLog | Library of Economics and Liberty

Blame the Republicans, Bryan Caplan | EconLog | Library of Economics and Liberty: "Personally, I strongly favor blaming Republicans.  I think 80% of the blame heaped on Republicans is justified.  What mystifies me, however, is the view that Republicans are somehow uniquely blameworthy.  If you can blame Republicans for lying about WMDs, why can't you blame alcoholics for lying to their families about their drinking?  If you can blame Republican leaders for supporting bad policies because they don't feel like searching for another job, why can't you blame able-bodied people on disability because they don't feel like searching for another job?"
