SSDD

When I was a pup, I had intuitions that sometimes fell into left-wing territory and sometimes right-wing territory, though I didn't know enough politics to understand that this was the case. As I began emerging from the Cave, I began to realize that the GOP always said it was a good time for tax cuts. Slow economy? Tax cuts. Fast economy? Tax cuts. Budget deficit? Tax cuts. Budget surplus? Tax cuts. Each time they offered it as a solution to a problem and not simply a principled commitment to lower taxes in all cases. Though I was a neophyte, this made me suspicious. I grew wiser. I realized the GOP, in recent years anyway, doesn't offer solutions to problems; they simply have an agenda.
