Krugman nails another one....
The primary conceptual dissonance siting between neoconservatives and reality: economics is different from physics and citizens are different from consumers.
We're seeing this confusing in Wisconsin's university system funding (7% of the state budget taking 38% of the cuts). You can impose a business model on anything ... but only if you want it to be a business. What if it's not?

If you are not a business at UW, you are living off the backs of everyone else.
One would think you would be a little more grateful to those of us taxpayers that pay the UW profs on the government plantation...
Instead you continue with a tax to the max attitude toward taxpaying serfs and refuse to clarify "how much is enough?" in relation to your covetous attitudes.
I suppose Kevin actually believes this. His business requires uneducated consumers and uneducated employees.
Dan,
Are you saying its wrong to suggest UW-prof's should be a little more grateful to taxpayers--the hardworking serfs that pay their bills?
Kevin,
Are you agreeing that without uneducated consumers and employees you wouldn't have much of a "business"?
