"There are men, in all ages, who mean to exercise power usefully; but who mean to exercise it. They mean to govern well; but they mean to govern. They promise to be kind masters; but they mean to be masters." Daniel Webster

Brad DeLong Is Still an Ethics-Free Hack

DeLong recently referred to my old grad school classmate Steve Horwitz as an "ethics-free Republican hack" for opposing a wasteful and possibly counterproductive "stimulus" package.

I had a lot to say about DeLong's lack of ethics and intellectual integrity, but they've all bee covered in the comments on this post. Note that when some of the commenters on this thread criticized DeLong on his own blog, he deleted their posts, as usual.
