Oink for Oil Posted by Heather Hurlburt

Michael, your post, and Ron Utt's idea, is great.  I'd like to see some of our wealthy progressive friends re-framing the tax cut issue as them giving their tax cuts back.  (I did see Hillary Clinton do this on the morning shows, actually.)

But more relevant to our national security website, how about we also ask the energy industry to give back some of the more outrageous goodies it got in the recent energy bill?  For starters, the one that guarantees a profit to anyone who wants to open up a nuclear power plant, even if it never produces a kilowatt?  The money could even go into rebuilding and diversifying our energy infrastructure, so energy companies would still have a shot at getting the money -- they'd just have to do something to earn it.

Heather, your approach makes much more sense, from a progressive perspective, than Michael Signer's. The focus should be on rolling back the tax cuts. From the standpoint of budget management and deficit reduction alone, tax increases and spending cuts may be two sides of the same coin. But measured against the requirements of a genuinely progressive agenda for the country, there is a world of difference between the two.
