Josh Marshall, what the frack? He's spreading this nonsensical meme that the gas tax holiday won't lower gas prices AT ALL. And furthermore, he's claiming that virtually all economists agree on this.

This, despite the experience of Indiana and Illinois, which saw at least a 60% decline in gas prices per dollar of tax cut.

Now you can argue about the efficacy of the policy, but to spread misinformation and lies is a bit ridiculous, no? TPM is basically now a haven for people who took Econ 101, barely understood it, and then stopped taking Econ because it was "too hard".

The email I sent to WKJM, which should have authoritatively ended his nonsense, but apparently hasn't.

WKJM appears to have gone tone deaf. If he was not always tone deaf. Great and unintentionally revealing headline:

Clinton Attacks "Elite Opinion" On Gas Tax Holiday

And your point would be, Josh?
