"CJ, more often than not a tax-n-spend politician only sees taxes as a source of revenue, not a means to smooth out economic cycles."

Even if true, and it isn't, how is that the fault of an economic system? If politicians want to spend, they will. Just look at the Bush administration. If they had been tax and spend, we would be in better shape now. Not in good shape, mind you. But better.
