Van Taylor: “To me, price fixing is a lazy legislator's answer to fixing a particular economic problem.”

The discussion we are having about whether or not to reauthorize a program that continues to be appropriated for really underscores the brokenness of the Federal budgeting process.

It is clear that the Majority is pushing for a world where the Federal Government not only decides if you can get a loan, but they are the ones who, in fact, lend you the money.

It seems like there is consensus that we are avoiding a macro catastrophe by trying to use forbearances and mechanisms to get to the other side.

I don't see how we have a winning America if we have a losing California, particularly if we have a losing San Francisco.
