Market think tanks and SSE.

From CATO, William Poole takes the contra supply-side view that benign neglect of the dollar has been a good thing.

AEI's Arnold Kling disputes supply-side contentions that growth can solve our budget problems.

Also at AEI, John H. Makin says exchange rates pegs are folly.
