Allan Hubbard, Bush's assistant for economic policy, wrote in yesterday's Wall Street Journal that "those who have to buy coverage (he's talking about health insurance) on their own get no tax break at all." I pay for my own health insurance and Schedule A of Form 1040 allows me to deduct some of this cost. See here for additional insightful observations of Mr. Hubbard.
On the same page Robert McDowell, FCC commissioner, takes off on the recent OECD survey of broadband usage. He attacks the survey because the methodology re usage was based on per capita. He ignores the real issues of the survey - we pay more for slower service.
Where does Bush get these guys?
